I think you have about a hundred[*] conflicting cygwin installs on your PC:

Microtec tools is one, and who knows what you've got in all those
cygwin_tools dirs, and I'll also bet that INFORMIX has a bunch of its own
tools, and it's not easy to guess which version of dos2unix, or indeed which
version of bash, you're running at any given time.
So the next info we need (someone really should have asked you this sooner,
sorry) is your cygcheck output:
1. Open a bash shell.
2. Run "cygcheck -s -r -v > cygcheck.out"
3. Take the .out file, and send it **as an attachment please** (not inline in
the body text - doing so makes it hard to search the list archives because of
all the false positives generated by matching keywords in the package listings
etc) to the list.
That should confirm whether you've got multiple cygwin dlls in the path, or
if the informix tools are confusing matters. (Failing that, we'll need to
start wondering whether other apps on your PC are interfering, but I think
we're likely to find the problem from the cygcheck.)
cheers,
