Configure as the following (with and w/out adding newlib), and I suggest
building in a object directory, not the source one:
  
  % mkdir obj
  % cd obj
  % ../configure --prefix=/Cygnus/B19 \
    	--exec-prefix=/Cygnus/B19/H-i386-cygwin32 i386-cygwin32

The default i586-pc-cygwin32 screws up the directory lookup for various
target related stuff, so you need to use i386-cygwin32 which is what the
default installation does. My current setup uses i686-pc-cygwin32, but
that's consistent (ie., everything is built using that, including gcc
and all), and so it works.
