but you have to know some development issues, or wait for the updated 
cygwin release.

   it's a female in portoguese? or just in brazil :)

get the cygwin gmp-4.1.2-1 src package.
get the updated gmp-4.1.3 package.
apply the cygwin build script to the new version (change the version 
number), just use prefix=/usr/local please.

this will apply the cygwin patches to the new version,
calls configure with the cygwin specific calls and calls make.
do your custom installation in to /usr/local/ then.
also unstall the cygwin gmp-4.1.2-1 package via setup.exe
