Well, then, you are out of luck.  Time marches forward and you're stuck
in the past.

Please don't waste *our* time by updating a package, expecting it to
work with a two year old version of the cygwin DLL, and then asking us
how to fix this problem for you when it doesn't.  It should be very
obvious from the error message that you received that this isn't going
to work.
