Try the mingw32 port of GNU make instead of the Cygwin port. Since gcc is (I assume) a Cygwin program, it is probably not the cause of this specific failure, but it will cause problems later in the build process once you get beyond this. I think the problem here may be that you do not have the mingw32 runtime libraries installed, which are necessary for --no-cygwin builds.
