Cygwin shared libraries are always .dll (well any I have ever seen and 
certainly the GRASS ones).

Perhaps the PATH variable has come unset similar to the recent problems on 
Debian (why the grass-run.sh script was introduced). Perhaps changing d.m 
to launch ps.map using grass-run.sh would fix the problem (PATH is the 
equivalent of LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Cygwin)
