Thanks for continuing here, Mark.  Unfortunately, you can color me mystified. 
"spawn" is not a Cygwin command or package.

It's not clear from the log what exactly is requiring "spawn".  I see that a 
number of gprof source files were compiled successfully by gcc, but then there's 
a "cc" command that failed.  On normal Cygwin installations, cc is a symlink to 
gcc.exe but I wonder if that's true on your system.

To go further with this we'll need the cygcheck output described on
http://cygwin.com/problems.html, namely 'cygcheck -svr > foo' and then *attach* 
foo to your next reply, without compressing or encoding it.

I also see that crosstool has not been updated since 2006.  The source packages 
it downloads to build are all old versions of things.

You may be interested that there is also a crosstool-NG (next generation) that 
was updated last year and I was able to download, configure, build, and install 
on Cygwin64 without any trouble.  So this may be way forward for you if ct-ng 
supports your target and you don't absolutely require crosstool.
Hope this helps somehow,
