cygwin doesn't come with gcc 3.3.3.3 (in fact, I don't know if such a
version exists).  Are you sure you are typing this correctly?

No.  I run cygwin with no problems on XP media edition.

I recommend following the directions here:

by including 'cygcheck -svr' output from both the working and broken
installation, as text attachments, we might be able to pinpoint something
in your setup that is causing the problem.
