Why not attach all the information asked for at 
http://www.cygwin.com/bugs.html?

It looks like the Cygwin gcc package and dependencies are installed.  
My guess you had some other compiler package installed already and/or
some environment variables for the compiler are set in your environment
that are getting in the way.  That's just a guess of course, since I 
don't have the output of cygcheck -s -r -v to verify that.  If that's
not the problem, you might try reinstalling.  But now I'm just grasping 
at straws for ideas.  You need to check out your environment/installation.
That's definitely where the problem is.
