Only the gcc which comes with cygwin has all the cygwin patches applied.
Since you don't specify any requirements which would move you toward a newer
version, such as the more modern C++ library, or P4 support, you may not
have a good reason for changing.  Attempting to build and install gcc
without upgrading your OS carries additional risk.
