Problem with cygfreetype-6.dll

I recently installed cygwin 2.510.2.2 (that's the version displayed by
the setup program) including the X11 stuff. I'm not running a cygwin
server on my windows machine (I have a different server), but I need to
use several of the X client apps displaying on a remote system. However,
whenever I run any X client, I get a message box telling me that the
application failed to start because cygfreetype-6.dll was not found.
I've searched and found that file as part of package libfreetype, but
that's not one of the packages that the setup program lists.

What should I do to install this file? 

Thanks for your attention to (what I hope is) a simple issue.
