Thanks for this explanation. That is exactly what was happening. I regret not noticing the issue from this:
# ldd stats.dll ntdll.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll (0x7ff9fc820000) KERNEL32.DLL => /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/KERNEL32.DLL (0x7ff9fbf10000) KERNELBASE.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/KERNELBASE.dll (0x7ff9fa260000) msvcrt.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/msvcrt.dll (0x7ff9fb930000) stats.dll => /usr/lib/R/library/stats/libs/stats.dll (0x3ee780000) cygwin1.dll => /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll (0x7ff9ee760000) libR.dll => /usr/bin/libR.dll (0x3ef040000) cyggomp-1.dll => /usr/bin/cyggomp-1.dll (0x3f95a0000) cygblas-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygblas-0.dll (0x3ec3f0000) cyglapack-0.dll => not found I do wonder if the error message could be changed from file not found to file could not be loaded.
