That's your problem. I'm not sure why that page says that, but just
checking out winsup will give you a tree that can't be used to build
anything.
Could someone give me a hint as to what other steps are necessary to
build cygwin using itself?
"cvs co cygwin"
This doesn't work for me:
-------
$ CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/src cvs co cygwin
cvs server: cannot find module `cygwin' - ignored
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot expand modules
-------
Hm. Looking at the CVS layout it appears that I might need "src/",
which is the common parent of "winsup/" and "newlib/".
I'll try that.

Hm, I can see that this is going to take a long time to cvs co. I'll
report back later how it works.
