msysgit - cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll was not found!!

Dear all,

I am experiencing what seems to be some conflict between cygwin and msysgit, 
even though cygwin was long uninstalled.

I use mostly two computers, and keep them synchronized by using bare git 
repositories in an external (USB) HD. I had msysgit in one of the computers, 
and had cygwin (with git) on the other, but recently I started experiencing 
some errors when running git push on the cygwin-based machine, so I decided to 
replace it with msysgit.
I uninstalled cygwin fully, including removing the two registry keys mentioned 
on several posts, and after a hard reboot, installed msysgit.

The problem is that whenever I try to start msysgit, I get the following 
message:
"This application has failed to start because cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll was not 
found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
But in my other computer there is no cygcrypto-0.9.8.dll, and everything works 
fine!

How can I get solve this?

Thanks,
Pedro
