That's a typical rebaseall problem, as advertised in the perl ANNOUNCEMENT.
Install rebase, read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rebase-2.4.4.README
snip
Use the following procedure to rebase your entire system:
1. shutdown all Cygwin processes and services
2. start ash (do not use bash or rxvt)
3. execute /bin/rebaseall (in the ash window)
