Jerome,

thanks for your quick reply. I did 

cd /
rm -rf /usr/share/texmf/web2c
tar -xzf /.../tetex-XXX.tar.gz

and rerun the three texconfig commands.

I had to copy the *.cnf.frozen files to *.cnf, I had the error 

$ texconfig confall
/usr/bin/texconfig: No $TEXMFMAIN in texmf.cnf file.
/usr/bin/texconfig: set TEXMFCNF variable to the directory where teTeX's
texmf.cnf file is in.

before I did this. Now this part is working. Thanks again.
I now get the same error that NOE nicolas wrote about in "latest cygwin
DLL version + teTeX and PDF problem".

PS: I copy the list, so the solution will be in the archive.
