Could you rename your c:\cygwin folder to c:\cygwin_bak and try a fresh 
install and see if happens the same? Are you installing cpan modules 
from binaries or compiling them with 'perl Build.PL'?

- There should be no need to rebase any dll, try installing all cpan 
modules from source code (the tar.gz). Install only perl from cygwin's 
setup.exe. If there are any compilation issues with any cpan module you 
will see it right away. All modules should compile and pass all t tests. 
You will need to install dependencies like gcc, gcc4, libbz2-devel, 
pkg-config and probably more from setup.exe.
- Remember to keep closed all terminals and cygwin sessions when running 
setup.exe
- I wasn't able to compile a lot of cpan modules under cygwin, for 
example P/PD/PDENIS/Test-Strict-0.14.tar.gz with either perl 5.10 or 
perl 5.14. This is not the case for Ubuntu, for example, at least trying 
to install all cpan dependencies for App-Asciio-1.02.71.
