nun denn das problem ist, ich habe bereits versucht das package cygwin
1.3.3-2 zu kompilieren,
doch der kompiler brach vorher ab...

eine möglichkeit ist woher bekommen ich eine funktionierende version (evtl.
ein update),
zweitens wie kann man dies umgehen und diese direkt linken....ohne alles
neu zu kompilieren

ich werde sehen

Have you linked against the libs?
In a cygwin install libc.a, libm.a, and libg.a are symlinks to
libcygwin.a, try to build cygwin from the sources (if you check out from
CVS, the newlib source is already included there).
Build cygwin and look if it still fails then.
