FWIW I can reproduce the issue.  See below...

I installed inkscape and tried running the .exe.  It returns to shell prompt but 
its exit code is 127, indicating a problem starting the process up.  ldd doesn't 
show anything amiss; as an aside that's an unusually long list of DLLs.

I ran 'strace -o inkscape.out inkscape -V' and looked at the traced output.
It ends with:

--- Process 11940 (pid: 11940), exception c0000139 at 00007ffaecf324f6
--- Process 11940 (pid: 11940) thread 1172 exited with status 0xc0000139
--- Process 11940 (pid: 11940) thread 1888 exited with status 0xc0000139
--- Process 11940 (pid: 11940) thread 5544 exited with status 0xc0000139
--- Process 11940 (pid: 11940) exited with status 0xc0000139

I grep'd /usr/include/w32api/ntstatus.h for that status and got:
#define STATUS_ENTRYPOINT_NOT_FOUND ((NTSTATUS)0xC0000139)

I then tried running inkscape.exe from a Command Prompt window and got a popup:
"The procedure entry point g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__BOOLEAN could not be located
in the dynamic link library C:\cygwin64\bin\inkscape.exe."

Why this happens, I leave to somebody experienced with building inkscape itself.
HTH,
