Thanks. So I downloaded and called set-gcc-default-4.sh, but gcc -v 
still reports gcc 3.
I could workaround this by putting /etc/alternatives in front of my 
PATH, but I don't think I'm supposed to have to do this (not documented 
anywhere, and manual pages are there, too).


Now I ran a "make distclean" which gave me this error:

Doing distclean in i686-pc-cygwin/winsup
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/cygwin-1.7.0-62/i686-pc-cygwin/winsup'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `distclean'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/cygwin-1.7.0-62/i686-pc-cygwin/winsup'
make[1]: *** [distclean-target-winsup] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/cygwin-1.7.0-62'
make: *** [do-distclean] Error 2



Then, after a "make clean", I tried to configure and make again but it 
still fails with:
