I know it's bad form to reply to one's own posts, but I think I got it. I
found the hint in http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-08/msg00826.html

Besides the libraries, I had to add this to the registry make it work.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2]
"cygdrive prefix"="/cygdrive"
"cygdrive flags"=dword:00000022

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/]
"native"="c:\\tmp"
"flags"=dword:0000000a

whele c:\tmp is a temporary directory.

To reassume, copy the 4 cygwin .ddls + add this to registry to get
bbackupd.exe working without cygwin.
