figure this one out (I think)
the first pass of the gcc (cc1) was looking for a dll "cygintl-3.dll"
this could not be found. I did find "cygintl-8.dll" which shows
modification as of 10/22/2006. Not sure if it is a complete fix but
I copied the "cygintl-8.dll" file and renamed it "cygintl-3.dll" and
the gcc now passes a rudementaly hello.c complile.
That's a truly terrible way to solve your problem. A better way would
have
been to consult <http://cygwin.com/packages/> to find the package you
were
missing (libintl3) and install it. I recommend you do that
immediately if
you don't want to suffer from more problems as a result of your attempt
above.

Try another mirror. <ftp://mirrors.dotsrc.org> showed me the libintl,
linintl1, libintl2, libintl3, and libintl8 packages. As long as you
can find the package at <http://cygwin.com/packages/>, there's going to
be at least one mirror out there with the package in question.
