give you a feedback on that matter.
I have made an msys installation and copied the new-msys-1.0.dll to that
installation and renamed it to mysy-1.0.dll.
Then I added the msys directory to the PATH and reconfigured LyX.
I had no more problems to run the script and the LyX installtion works
fine without cygwin too.
The error message reported was found at this url:

http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/msys-1.0.dll-SNAP-1.0.11-2006.04.23.tar.bz2?download
The new-msys replacement file is available in that bz2 file,
which seems to have helped solve the problem.
Posted in case this error message reappears on the list.
