You need to rebase all of your CYgwin DLL's. If you don't already have the
'rebase' package installed, install it, and make sure there are *no* Cygwin
processes running (this includes cygrunsrv services. conform with `pw -e'). Then
you need to open up a command.com/cmd.exe bash shell (you cannot use rxvt) and
type

  rebaseall -v

at the prompt. You should be fine after that.
