   Hi Karsten,

>/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/machmode.h:47: stray '\' in program

  This one's a dead giveaway under cygwin.  Your source code has DOS style
CRLFs but it needs Unix style LFs.  Either run a dos2unix converter over
all your source files or perhaps even better, set up a cygwin mount point
in textmode for your source tree.  If this error still occurs after that,
it means you need to change into $obj/gcc/include and dos2unix convert
all the files there before continuing the build.

    hth,
      DaveK
