Jeff The cygwin1.dll in usertools is outdated. It does not support exporting libc functions, therefore I use Cygwin v 1.1 CD Release.
You have 3 options: 1) From the nearest CompUSA store buy a Cygwin CD box. or get it from http://www.cygnus.com/cygwin. Of course you get almost $20.00 discount if you purchase from CompUSA. Cygnus will sell it to you at MSRP. 2) Go http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin and choose developemnt snapshots. Download cygwin1.dll only, which approx 250 KB. It will unzip to a cygwin1-xxxx.dll, rename it to Cygwin1.dll and in your user tools directory rename the old Cygwin1.dll to Cygwin1.dll-old then copy new dll to that directory inside cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/bin 3) Recompile the code yourself, which would cost you a lot fo time in downloading neccessary tools.
