As follows:

>>> Attempting to run pdftex I am getting:
>>> /usr/bin/pdftex.exe: error while loading shared libraries:
>>> ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

>> ~> cygcheck /bin/pdftex.exe

Unfortunately (no idea why or how) the otherwise flawlessly beautiful 
setup v.2.510.2.2 as an instrument
of Cygwin installation and maintenance didn't pick this up.
