emacs-23.3-2 works fine for me with cygwin-1.7.9.
A program failing silently is often a sign of a missing DLL. Maybe
one of the dependencies of emacs didn't get installed. Try 'cygcheck
/usr/bin/emacs' and see if it reports anything missing.

But the complaint that I was getting was of the missing _feinitialise().
And, the only thing I did to fix it was install cygwin-1.7.8 dll...
I'm not near that machine now, but I will try what you suggest again
later. Perhaps it was 23.3-1 that had the problem, not 23.3-2. Since
both emacs' were failing silently, I assumed they both had the problem.
Note that one of the post-install scripts failed with 1.7.9 as well (not
with 1.7.8), so not really sure what is happening.
More info later,
