It is not a configuration issue, but a fork issue.

Save the attachment as octave_rebaseall.bat on your
root cygwin directory
(c:\cygwin  or wherever you installed)

and run it from explorer with no other cygwin process running.

It will rebase correctly all the cygwin dll's, including the
octave ".oct" ones
