This occurs even under newly installed windows 10 & 7.
Moreover, rebaseall does not help.

Couldn't you reproduce the problem in your environment with my test case?

Release note of iperf 2.0.5-1 says:
  Note that a currently known limitation of the Cygwin version is that 
  running as a daemon (with the -D option) is not currently functional. 
  The previous version (2.0.4) also had this limitation.

This is also the reason why I think this problem causes commonly
with cygwin.
