Replace the argument list above with the cyg*.dll files in *your*
/usr/bin.  The "last error = 2" error message is caused by a file not
found condition.  A later version of rebase displays better error messages
that make this more obvious.

See the following for more (possibly useful) information:

Otherwise, just follow Michael's suggestion and build _socket statically.

I will try to release a pre-built 2.2.1 ASAP.
