Thanks a lot to you both.  I have installed rebase, but the syntax is 
actually different from what you describe.  With and without a parameter 
on the command line, I get usage errors:

$ rebase
usage: rebase -b BaseAddress [-Vdv] [-o Offset] [-T FileList | -] Files...

$ rebase cygz.dll
usage: rebase -b BaseAddress [-Vdv] [-o Offset] [-T FileList | -] Files...

$ rebase -v c:\programfiles\cygwin\bin\cygz.dll
usage: rebase -b BaseAddress [-Vdv] [-o Offset] [-T FileList | -] Files...


My version:

$ rebase -V
rebase version 2.3 (imagehelper version 0.7)
