You need to download the latest cygwin-inst tarball and replace your existing
headers and libs.  If you have any libraries you've built of your own you'll
have to rebuild those.  The cygwin1.dll is backward compatible to the existing
executable only, and not the existing objects and libraries that make the
executable.
