I use i686-pc-cygwin 32bits on top of XP with always the latest cygwin packages
(including cygwin1.dll), and it worked perfectly for me (as worked the snapshots
i've tested before (20120526, 20120602) and after (20120609). I must however
confess that i use --disable-bootstrap and --enable-languages=c,c++ (because
otherwise it takes more than 26 hours to compile).

I also use --disable-sjlj-exceptions, but i suppose it has become the default
these days.

Hope this helps,

Denis Excoffier.
