Here is the transcript with the latest cffi:

CFFI-USER> (setf *target* #p"/bin/cyggsl-0.dll")
#P"/bin/cyggsl-0.dll"
CFFI-USER> (probe-file *target*)
#P"/bin/cyggsl-0.dll"
CFFI-USER> (cffi:load-foreign-library *target*)

and the error message:

Unable to load foreign library (NIL).
  FFI::FOREIGN-LIBRARY: Cannot open library "/bin/cyggsl-0.dll": "No
such file or directory"
   [Condition of type LOAD-FOREIGN-LIBRARY-ERROR]
