This tells us something important. Right after the path listing, cygcheck list "Output from C:\cygwin64\bin\id.exe". The id exe is a cygwin exe which uses cygwin1.dll, cygintl-8.dll, and cygiconv-2.dll. That narrow the problem. These three DLLs might have been corrupted, or something is interfering with their correct operation. See BLODA: See https://cygwin.com/acronyms/ Check the list of BLODAs to see if you are running one of those.
