That's due to a change in binutils that caused it to be more strict. 
The offending line has been removed from the linker script in HEAD.  You
can either make the appropriate change in the branch, or downgrade
binutils.  I'd recommend the former.  See
<http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-06/threads.html#00014> and
<http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/winsup/cygwin/cygwin.sc.diff?r1=1.22&r2=1.23&cvsroot=src>.
