Maybe off the wall, but keep the program that you are trying to run.  
Remove the cygwin tree (c:\cygwin) and then try running the exe again.  
See what happens.  If the program runs, then there is a cygwin1.dll 
outside of the tree.  Check the path that the program uses to see where 
the dll might be lurking.

Could the dll have a different name then cygwin1?  Where I work we've 
created a special dll with a different name to prevent cross over 
problems from the regular cygwin dll.  When running a regular cygwin 
program in this custom space (i.e. start from bash in custom 
environment) the error message you've seen appears.

Again off the wall things to try and check.
