You're confusing the cygwin product with multiple paths to the
product.  Secondly the /Cygnus/SN405/bin points to the first release
of version b20 which was buggy.

Clean up the PATH environment variable so that it is included only as
the first element of the PATH.  If after doing this you still have
problems resubmit the cygcheck -s -v -r output.
