I don't understand why the diff shenanigans. Rsync has that built-in,
so you shouldn't need to be doing that as a separate step.
If it is a file size limit, you could try to split(1) the file, then
rsync the chunks. You might also try cygwin 1.7, which has improved
the support for modern Windows OS dramatically.
