I'm supposedly having a problem with an old version of cygwin1.dll,

And when I run cygwin setup it tell me that I have an old version of

delete it. But there is no cygwin1.dll there or anywhere else on my
system except in c:\cygwin\bin. I even deleted that one and
reinstalled and still have the same problem.
I have attached the output of cygcheck.

You must need more coffee!
It's possible that somebody (or some installer) has marked the
cygwin1.dll in system32 as system and/or hidden. This may explain why it
doesn't appear in explorer or a DOS directory listing.
Explorer has an option which will show hidden and system files: set that
and you ought to be able to find it.
