Rebase is a Cygwin application and needs cygwin1.dll.  You can see that 
by using cygcheck:

$ cygcheck rebase
Found: C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\rebase.exe
C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\rebase.exe
   C:\cygwin-1.7\bin\cygwin1.dll
     C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
         C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
       C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
         C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll

That's why the instructions that you quoted in your first message in 
this thread (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-12/msg00159.html) said to 
run rebase on a *copy* of cygwin1.dll.
