Try running cc1.exe and see if you get something like:

c:\cygwin\bin> bash
      6 [main] ? 3816 init_cheap: Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap,
Win32 error 487
c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe (3816): *** AllocationBase 0x0, BaseAddress
0x616E0000, RegionSize 0x1AA0000, State 0x10000

(replace bash with cc1)

If yes, read:
