As Tim said, since that version of GCC doesn't even recognise cygwin it won't have any support to target it - you aren't going to build a native 2.7.2.3 for cygwin without a lot of effort. (Which is why I assumed you were building a cross-compiler to something it does support.) I don't see anything on the ATLAS website or in the latest stable release (3.60) that says you require 2.7.2.3. So you might have more luck with a newer version from here: http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/ unless you've got some other requirement for 2.7.2.3. For what it's worth I've just successfully built ATLAS 3.60 on a Linux system with gcc 3.4.5.
