In theory, yes. You have to build a cross-compiler for GNUMach/Hurd 
using Cygwin ("host" will be Cygwin, "target" will be GNUMach/Hurd - 
don't know exactly what either of these is named in the GNU 
configuration files, but it shouldn't be hard to find out).

As to that - I'm not sure why. You will have to post specific failure 
messages and ask for help..
