Re: glibc-2.2.5 build problem on Cygwin : target i386-linux

 The normal method is to copy the already built glibc-2.2.5 from the
target, then build GCC against it. No delimited 'bootstrap-GCC', but
the fully working GCC immediately...


Yes, that's much easier, if you happen to have a copy of a
working target environment.  It's certainly how I did things
for the first year I was doing crossgcc stuff.
(However, when I needed a newer glibc than the target environment
has, I went to the trouble of building absolutely everything from scratch.)

So, why you desperately are trying to build glibc-2.2.5 with a probably
non-working GCC ? 

And why are you using such an old gcc?  2.95.4 is pretty obsolete by now.
