You need to have a working compiler under cygwin already installed in
order to compile GCC. Just fire up the cygwin setup application and
add the missing compiler and appropriate development files (for sake
of simplicity just intall *all* packages if unsure or desperate ;)
). After installation you should be all set to compile GCC.

If you have GCC installed to an unusual location or changed its name
somehow or you're using another compiler just set the CC variable to
indicate which compiler should be used to compile GCC as instructed by
configure:

export CC="/c/bin/my-own-version-of-gcc"
