Hi Andrew,
I have not seen any particular difference between the two cygwin flavors
I am running both versions on my W7 64 bit.

The only trick is to have two different names for the cygserver service
to avoid collision. Those services are capable to run at the same time.

E.G. from 64 bit point of view:
$ cygrunsrv.exe -L
(cygserver)
cygserver64
(sshd)

in brackets the 32bit services.

Let me know if you need any support
