I found many Cygwin exes that display zero to multiple lines like that, depending on the run, but it was flakey and inconsistent, and could not find any common factors across builds. Across 1684 /bin/exes, about 400 exes displayed about 600 lines with '???'. That looks like it might be a limitation of how ldd works under Cygwin. If you compare ldd output to cygcheck output from the same exe, ldd always omits and cygcheck always includes the following on my W10 Home: C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-processthreads-l1-1-1.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-synch-l1-2-0.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-file-l1-2-0.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-timezone-l1-1-0.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-localization-l1-2-0.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-file-l2-1-0.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\api-ms-win-core-xstate-l2-1-0.dll so what we are seeing may be an artifact of Windows dll load table entries, as Windows programs can not be built with unresolved dll links, but Cygwin dynamically autoloads dlls when functions are called. -- Take care.
