Run Cygwin setup to upgrade everything pending, reboot, and retest.
If the compile still fails, provide the info below.

You don't specify or provide many details so add the following
command inputs and outputs to your report here:
* system:		uname -srvmo
* processors:		cat /proc/cpuinfo
* memory:		cat /proc/meminfo
* compiler:		gcc --version
* preprocessed source:	gcc -dM -E bug_f2.c

Report those here, and with your source, description,
and link to your detailed post here, in a bug report at:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/
and you may get a better response.
