No, as Chris pointed out, setup is fine.  Check your environment again.  You
have some environment variable set wrong (for some other reason) or you're not 
using the gcc you think you are or some other such thing.  Of course if you 
still get the complaint about a bad volume when you run cygcheck, you may 
actually have a disk problem at the heart of your difficulties.
