What does "which latex" say?

I ask because of:

That leads me to believe you might have some rogue *ix like programs 
running around somewhere other than d:\cygwin.

Other curious things in your cygcheck output:

You might want to fix that.  But also:

...repeat for multiple drives...

You can probably simplify your fstab like so:

     D:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin ntfs binary 0 0
     D:/cygwin/lib /usr/lib ntfs binary 0 0
     none / cygdrive binary,posix=0,user 0 0

The last line automatically gets rid of the "/cygdrive" path part, so 
all drive letters appear at the root of the Cygwin path tree.

And I can't help but ask:

Exodus 3:14? :)
