I think that multiple copies of cygwin1.dll are 
discouraged- I'm surprised that there aren't developers 
shouting about this already. 

Jorge, I would recommend you go with Mark Gordon's 
suggestion, and add "C:\cygwin\bin" to your "DOS" path. 
If you are on Windows NT, right click on "My computer"
choose properties, click on the "environment" tab, and 
add "C:\cygwin\bin" to the beginning or end of the 
"SYSTEM" PATH variable. You will need to be administrator 
to do this, and any DOS command shells you have open 
will have to be closed and re-opened for this change 
to take effect. You can also add it to your user path, 
but that might not work for "system" calls. 

HTH,
Peter

Your mouse has moved.
Windows NT must be restarted for the change to take effect.
Reboot now?  [OK]
