The OpenSSH and rsync binaries that ship with Cygwin itself will use the
same version of the cygwin DLL. If you're not using those then you're
pretty much on your own.

I think that recent versions of Windows now allow per-process private
DLLs these days, so if you must use different versions then that might help.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
