[ Hi Eitan; you only sent this reply to me personally, and I'm guessing
that's just a mistake from hitting the wrong reply button, so I've Cc'd the
list back in. (If you did do it just to take the conversation private,
please see http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PPIOSPE for why it's always better to
keep these discussions on the list. Cheers! ]

Hmm. I was starting to wonder if you had some kind of autotools problem.
I notice that you don't have any of the following packages installed:
autoconf 2.59-2
autoconf-devel 2.59-2
autoconf-stable 2.13-6
autoconf2.1 2.13-1
autoconf2.5 2.59-1
automake 1.7.9-2
automake-devel 1.9.2-2
automake-stable 1.4p6-3
automake1.4 1.4p6-1
automake1.9 1.9.5-1
which would certainly prevent the build process from regenerating any
configure scripts it might need to. (You really *need* to install the
autotools if you're planning on building code from CVS, anyway.)
.... But then I noticed this line from your cygcheck output:
> . /cygdrive system textmode,cygdrive
BINGO! Come in Houston, we have a problem:
> collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault], core dumped
>/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.1/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:

You can't build in a textmode directory. ld doesn't handle DOS-style
CR/LF line ends in a .def file. Personally I'd remount your entire system
(_particularly_ the cygdrive mount) in binary mode if it was me, but you
should just be able to create a binmode mountpoint subdirectory and download
the sourced and compile under there.
cheers,
