For tools like ddrescue, which do not require external support files in 
/etc, /usr or /var, simply put the executable and the required Cygwin 
DDLs in the same directory. Use cygcheck to get a list of these DDLs.

ddrescue and smartctl: cyggcc_s-1.dll cygstdc++-6.dll cygwin1.dll
coreutils tools like dd, ls: cyggcc_s-1.dll cygiconv-2.dll cygintl-8.dll 
cygwin1.dll

I successfully tested Cygwin ddrescue in the Windows console of a Win7 
Recovery CD.
