Sounds like you have some Firewall software which interacts with sshd
badly. Did you try to add a dependency to this firewall software, too?

You could see if it's still on your disk, if you "Install from Internet"
using setup.exe. Also, 1.12-1 isn't removed from sourceware, so you
could inspect your favorite mirror and download this package from there.
cygrunsrv can be installed by stopping all Cygwin services and just
unpacking the tar file in the Cygwin root dir.
