How to run cygwin compiled/linked application on machine without cygwin installed?

I have c++ application built on machine "A" with cygwin (1.5.25-14)
installed.  I have copied the application and cygwin1.dll to machine "B",
where cygwin has not been installed.  When I attempt to execute the
application I get alert messages that various cygwin dlls are missing and
that reinstalling may help to solve the problem.  My understanding is that
only the cygwin1.dll was required.  I ran cygcheck on my application
executable and I did get list of several dlls (eg: cygXm-2.dll) as
dependencies.  I am uncertain how to proceed.
