Looks like a packaging problem as the man dirs are created but not populated:

https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86_64%2Frsync%2Frsync-3.1.3%2B20200429%2Bgitf7746d0-1&grep=rsync

    2020-05-05 12:11           0 usr/share/man/
    2020-05-05 12:11           0 usr/share/man/man1/
    2020-05-05 12:11           0 usr/share/man/man5/

but the previous releases include the man pages:
