Error messages for those codes are:
0 = The operation completed successfully.
2 = The system cannot find the file specified.
6 = The handle is invalid.

You might want to look at the MS site for problems reported loading DLLs
(I'm, of course, assuming that this system DLLs are in place and in your
path as far as Cygwin is concerned). I know there were some reported
problems with ADVAPI.DLL I think. Chris Faylor, I believe, posted a
pointer to the MS site with something about that but I can't seem to
find it in the archives (I'm not remembering the right key I'm sure).
