I tried all methods suggested by everyone, and nothing worked.   So I 
cheated and updated my working version of Cygwin to the latest, then 
copied the dlls from c:\cygwin\bin to a USB stick, plugged the usb stick 
into the isolated PC, and while I got Cygwin set up and installing, copied 
the DLLs from the USB stick to c:\cygwin\bin on the destination system.

That worked fine.

I'd still like to know why the DLLs didn't install from a local install 
attempt of Cygwin.  It simply prevented the Bash post install scripts from 
running.  But after my manual copying, the script worked fine.
