No, not really.  'make install prefix=$inst/usr exec_prefix=$inst/usr 
bindir=$inst/usr/bin libdir=$inst/usr/lib sysconfdir=$inst/etc 
includedir=$inst/usr/include tooldir=$inst/usr'

But the oops happens during the make, ('make CFLAGS=-O2 tooldir=/usr') 
not make install.

Thanks for clarifying that you, at least, *are* able to bootstrap (build 
a new cygwin while running a devel cygwin).  It's probably just me.
