Thanks for the response.  I'm glad to see that it's not just my system.  
I'll try the --save-temps work around.  If there's anything at all that 
I can do to help, please let me know.  I've become pretty dependent on 
cygwin, and would hate to have to go back to a real Linux box to get a 
working compiler. :-(

How's the 4.x port coming?  Is there somewhere that I can download the 
gcc patches for cygwin and see how complicated it is?  I assume that 
there's no hope of the 4.x branch compiling on cygwin without major surgery?
