I tried all methods suggested by everyone, and nothing worked. So I
cheated and updated my working version of Cygwin to the latest, then
copied the dlls from c:\cygwin\bin to a USB stick, plugged the usb stick
into the isolated PC, and while I got Cygwin set up and installing, copied
the DLLs from the USB stick to c:\cygwin\bin on the destination system.
That worked fine.
I'd still like to know why the DLLs didn't install from a local install
attempt of Cygwin. It simply prevented the Bash post install scripts from
running. But after my manual copying, the script worked fine.
