Hi
I had the same problem.
The problem is with one of your cygwin libraries.

Reuben Thomas sent me this reply:
-------------
You probably need to change the mingw package: if its date is 200012xx, try
downgrading to 200011xx. This recommendation also applies to Janna Khegai's
message.
-------------
You'll have to download and install the slightly older mingw package.
