Since there's not allot of specific data here, I can only hazard a guess.
When you mention that the postinstall scripts aren't running, that suggests
to me one of two things:

   1. http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA
   2. DLL rebasing.  Did you try installing the rebase package, reading its
      readme, and running rebaseall as it directs?
