Subject:	configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
	cannot create executables
References:	<2C08D4EECBDED41184BB00D0B74733420473F04F AT cf-bay-exch-03 DOT cacheflow DOT com>

I've been searching the lists for a solution to this problem - I can
find the problem posted, but not 
the solution. 

While trying to run configure for expat in cygwin, the gcc compiler
check fails. I removed
my previous cygwin installation (including removing all cygwin and
cygnus registry keys and searching 
the file system for 'cyg'), emptied the recycle bin, restarted, and did
a full clean install of the latest cygwin, 
but it still happens.  I have the results of configure, gcc -v, and
cygcheck -s -r -v below.

Thank you in advance to anyone can help me to get this working.
