Comment(by johnwcowan):

 The first problem is almost certainly because DLL files have to be either
 in the current directory or on the $PATH.  This is a Windows misfeature
 that Cygwin cannot hide, because DLLs are loaded by the Windows dynamic
 loader before Cygwin gets control.  (It doesn't apply to DLLs explicitly
 opened with dlopen().)
