a little google search for that error turned up this:
http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=132

It's a known problem, not cygwin-specific.

In fact, crosstool has a fix for it in
http://kegel.com/crosstool/crosstool-0.28-rc37/patches/glibc-2.3.2/sscanf.patch
but since you didn't let crosstool unpack sources,
it didn't apply the patch.

Maybe you should let crosstool build from tarballs, it'll
avoid a lot of trouble.
