You did not specify a target here, i.e. --target arm-elf
Note that by doing this you have probably overwritten the assembler and
linker supplied with cygwin by new versions built from these sources. This
may be okay, but it's something for you to be careful about.

In general I would recommend against installing things into the cygwin
directory, as it may overwrite some of the cygwin-supplied utilities with
newer versions that may not be as reliable. But if you do want to do this,
then you should use the same prefix as you used for the exec-prefix, i.e.
/cygdrive/c/cygwin
