It appears that now one must bundle at least one dll. From a licensing standpoint, are these dll's any different from cygwin1.dll? Can they be distributed freely without bundling the source code? If not, I might as well forget about mingw and just supply cygwin1.dll.

The cygwin distribution of mingw puts the support dlls in their own directories. You must act yourself to get them on PATH. This is a consequence of their not being cygwin compilers and giving you a mongrel combination of cygwin and Windows setup. However, cygwin provides useful tools like find and export: export PATH=/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/:$PATH
