How are you starting the script?  From a cygwin bash shell, command
prompt, or clicking on the .pl file?  The references to
"D:\Local\Cygwin\bin\perl.exe" make me think the script is being
called through a windows mechanism instead of a cygwin one.

Maybe the .dll messages mean something to someone else?
