Crash when compiling Sitecopy

Hello

I am not a Cygwin expert but I am trying to compile sitecopy 
(http://www.lyra.org/sitecopy/) under the Cygwin, which should be 
possible "out of the box". Unfortunately, after unpacking he source, 
entering the directory and typing "./configure", small window appears 
with the following text:

"Error Starting Program - The CYGICONV-2.DLL file is linked to missing 
export CYGWIN1.DLL:_fopen64."

(it looks like generic Windows error message, not cygwin error)

While this happens, the cygwin windows says:

$ ./configure
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... configure: error: C compiler 
cannot cr
eate executables
See `config.log' for more details.

When I look into the config.log file, the culprit seems to be:

Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.1 (cygming special)
configure:1698: $? = 0
configure:1700: gcc -V </dev/null >&5
gcc: `-V' option must have argument
configure:1703: $? = 1
configure:1727: checking for C compiler default output
configure:1730: gcc    conftest.c  >&5
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec 
`/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.1/cc1.exe': Permission denied

I have the latest standard cygwin installation and doesn't contain the 
/usr directory at all! It has /lib directory in the root (i.e. the above 
path would be valid if it didn't inlude the opening "/usr") but I am not 
enough Linux guru to understand config files and try to fix this myself. 
I have Windows 98 SE.

Any help? Thanks.
