Hopefully someone here will be able to help.

I just installed the latest version of cygwin including the gcc development
tools. But when running ./configure I get the following error

**************************************
...
checking for working autoheader... found
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.
**************************************

Here is a dump of the relevant bits from the config.log file

**************************************
...
configure:789: checking for gcc
configure:902: checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works
configure:918: gcc -o conftest    conftest.c  1>&5
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -luser32
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:

#line 913 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"

main(){return(0);}
**************************************

I searched google and found a reference to this problem (referenced below):
the fix was to re-install w32api to make sure that libuser32.a was installed.

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-03/msg00218.html

I re-installed w32api, libuser32.a is definitely in my "usr/lib/w32api"
directory.

As per the FAQ, I ran "cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out", however it
terminated with an error...

**************************************
cygcheck: dump_sysinfo: GetVolumeInformation() failed: 1
