A bash debug version? (10min?, 30min?, 2hrs?, ...?)
You don't need to build a cygwin1.dll debug version, just download a snapshot with its corresponding .dbg file, plus the sources if you want to get gdb into cygwin1 (the sources have to be installed in the same place as the debug info was created with, you'll see the path when gdb complains about not finding the source). And to answer your question, on a [EMAIL PROTECTED] it takes less than 10 minutes.
