Go here:

http://www.cygwin.com/packages/

Search for "cygpng2.dll" -- it will report that the desired file is in the

libpng/libpng-1.0.11-1     PNG library - development 
libpng2/libpng2-1.0.12-1   PNG library - 1.0.x runtime

Now, that's a bit confusing.  But, if you run setup, you'll see that 
"libpng-1.0.11-1" is a "prev" release, so libpng2-1.0.12-1 is what you 
want.  Install that.
