Well, I ran sum -r (I'm running cygwin 1.5.24):

   ~$ sum -r /bin/ls.exe /bin/cygwin1.dll
   08756    96 /bin/ls.exe
   59473  1830 /bin/cygwin1.dll

You might do the same and see if there is perhaps a different ls being run.

You could also try fully qualifying the path to ls:

   /bin/ls --color=none /bin

A portion of my cygcheck -svr shows:

I would wager that something is really hosed on your system, since
none of the rest of us seem to have this problem.
