Matt,

You might want to contact Rico Juinio who was working on porting the 
entire SUNRPC/ONC + NFS(d) suite earlier this year.  He never finished 
it, but promised to send what he had to anyone interested.  Apparently 
he's got a whole lot more then just the sunrpc portion working, but I 
suppose who ever contacts him will be the judge of that.  Here is the 
thread, use the email address specified there to contact him:

If you do get in contact with him and get the entire suite working, 
please considier becoming its maintainer.  ONC/RPC support is something 
Cygwin could really use.

Cheers,
Nicholas
