the normal behaviour should be:
$ /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache --force /usr/share/icons/hicolor
gtk-update-icon-cache: Cache file created successfully.

the error 127 is usually due to a missing or corrupted dll.

On your case the problem is:

cygwin                    1.7.16-1             OK

but

  2778k 2012/04/05 C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0
                   "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2012/4/5 11:43
     Cygwin DLL version info:
         DLL version: 1.7.13


this means that when you updated the last cygwin package
you had still process running and it failed to replace the cygwin1.dll.

Solution:
Stop all the programs and cygwin services

Service             : cygserver
Service             : sshd

and re-install the cygwin-1.7.16-1 package.


Regards
Marco
