No.  I just built a cross-compiler for my system.  Normal users just run
gcc on windows.

You build a cygwin cross compiler more or less the same way as you build
any cross compiler.  The standard windows libraries and headers are part
of the winsup/mingw and winsup/w32api directories which are supposed to
be used and automatically when you build a cross-compiler.
