That can mean a missing DLL function entry.

Add some commands that show the current situation before and after each command, 
and post the actual output from the script and status checking commands.

Under CMD you can display %ERRORLEVEL% and use DIR:

	$ CMD /C ECHO %ERRORLEVEL%
	0
	$ ECHO %ERRORLEVEL%
	%ERRORLEVEL%

It likely means require DLLs are not in PATH and/or ls or Cygwin could not load 
them, as bash would issue a diagnostic:

	$ xyzzy; echo $?
	-bash: xyzzy: command not found
	127

I personally think this should be diagnosed with a DLL not found from Cygwin or 
Windows!
Although the call used may only be testing if the DLL is available, not actually 
loading it.

Maybe add running the failing command under strace to diagnose which DLL or 
entry is causing the failure.
