You've not supplied enough information to give you an answer. Supply the
smallest amount of source code to provide an example of the problem. Supply
the output of `cygcheck -s -r -v' pasted in a mail.

This is ill-advice. Under no circumstances should you copy the Cygwin1.dll to
the windows directories. As a matter of fact you shouldn't copy the
cygwin1.dll from it's original directory. Although, you won't have problems
initially, when you upgrade the Cygwin product you'll end up with multiple
version of the Cygwin1.dll which will lead to problems.
