The cygcheck output looks correct. I assume you also checked that xkbcomp can
be run?
I am not sure what the input file should be see all I see is the error message
"Error: No input file specified". If you know what the path is I will run it
and see if it works.
That's fine, it just shows that xkbcomp does exist and can be run.
If that doesn't help, perhaps you can run 'strace -o log XWin' and attach the
resulting log file?
Log file attached. This is what I see in the Cygwin64 terminal.
Thanks. The interesting bit is:

This shows that sh is crashing in some DLL early in the attempt to use
it to run xkbcomp. I'm not quote sure how this translates to
termination status 0x7F00.
Unfortunately strace doesn't quite capture enough information to
identify which DLL.
I've uploaded a patched version which collects more information at [1],
perhaps you download that, put it in /usr/bin and try that strace
command again. (You may need to chmod +x it after downloading)
This is suggestive of some other software interfering with Cygwin somehow.
