I can confirm this, but I'm not convinced it's a bug.  'man xpdf' says:

        0      Set the zoom factor to 125%.

        +      Zoom in (increment the zoom factor by 1).

        -      Zoom out (decrement the zoom factor by 1).

        z      Set the zoom factor to 'page' (fit page to window).

        w      Set the zoom factor to 'width' (fit page width to window).

If the zoom factor is 'page' or 'width', what would it mean to increment or
decrement the zoom factor by 1?

One more/less than the zoom factor needed to achieve "fit page" or "fit width".

Sorry, I wasn't clear. In the context of the manual entry, it's not obvious that the program author(s) intended zoom factors of 'page' and 'width' to be subject to incrementing/decrementing.

I get the same impression from looking at the zoom box at the bottom of the screen: The choices are 400%, 200%, ..., 12.5%, "fit page", and "fit width". So it seems quite possible that the program is behaving as designed. There's also no reason to think that this is a bug in the Cygwin implementation of xpdf, unless the OP finds that it behaves differently on other systems.
