But can somebody tell me, why cygwin prints Bad address? Also, is ldd /usr/bin/pdftex.exe broken since it didn't print any information about missing libraries when cygpoppler-26.dll didn't exist on my system? Only by accident, I tried "strace pdftex" and a nice windows popped up informing me about the lack of cygpoppler-26.dll on my system.
