Just because gcc-testsuite doesn't contain 'gcc', that's no reason to call it
an empty package. :-)

gcc-testsuite does not contain 'gcc'.  You have the wrong package.  You want
the gcc package.  If you have installed that package but can't find 'gcc.exe'
anywhere on your system, then you more than likely picked a partial or
out-of-date mirror.  Try another one.  If it's not that and you can't figure
out the issue, please read and follow <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
