Brian,
  Again many thanks for the help. I manually created the links and it 
resulted in the same behavior.I did some more looking around and it 
appeared that the /usr/lib/gcc/3.4.4/i686-pc-mingw directory suffered 
the same problem (it had .lnk files). So I went into the cygwin 
setup.exe and uninstalled all of the mingw stuff.  Setup complained that 
parts of the main gcc stuff required mingw tools, I unchecked the box so 
that setup would remove the mingw stuff anyway. When I looked on the HD 
all of the mingw directories were still there. I manually deleted all 
the files  in these directories (/usr/i686-pc-mingw and 
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32).  I then reran the cygwin setup and had it 
install the mingw tools. This fixed the problem. I am presuming that the 
setup was not actually erasing the mingw files from the HD (as evidenced 
by what I saw) so that was causing the problem in that when setup was 
not properly over-writing the existing files.

Again thanks.
-Jim
