This is almost certainly a cygwin-specific problem, and you may do
better asking for help on the cygwin mailing list.
When I see an error like that, what I think is "there is no /bin/sh".
So, is there a /bin/sh? I don't use cygwin, and I can't help you if
there isn't one.
A workaround for a missing /bin/sh is to invoke the shell explicitly:
bash ../gcc-4.2.4/configure ...
You may also need to set the environment variable CONFIG_SHELL to
bash, or ideally the absolute pathname of bash.

I've never run into a missing cygwin /bin/sh; it can't happen unless you
modify the standard installation, in which case the advice will be to
return to standard configuration. As you've spelled configure 2
different ways, I would look first to see if the message is telling the
truth. It's also worth while to verify you are running the current
supported version of cygwin.
Cygwin list tends not to be helpful to those who want to build their own
gcc, possibly with good reason, as any reasons why someone would not
accept the gcc-4 provided by cygwin almost inevitably lead off topic.
