The process is 

$ scp news:SFU35SEL_EN.exe tmp/
SFU35SEL_EN.exe 99%  218MB   0.0KB/s - stalled -

and the output of strace is attached. I've used 'strace -p <PID>' while
the scp-process was stalled already. I think I've tested with the latest
snapshot:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 nbof 1.5.7s(0.109/3/2) 20040124 15:46:47 i686 unknown
