Building LLVM and the GCC front-end under Cygwin

["Alex Vinokur" <alexvn at connect dot to>]

I would like to build LLVM and the GCC front-end under Cygwin.

<QUOTE from http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/docs/CFEBuildInstrs.html#cygwin>
Some versions of Cygwin utilize an experimental version of GNU binutils that will cause the GNU ld linker to fail an assertion when
linking components of the libstdc++. It is recommended that you replace the entire binutils package with version 2.15 such that
"ld --version" responds with

GNU ld version 2.15
not with:

GNU ld version 2.15.91 20040725
</QUOTE>

Here is ld version
$ ld --version
GNU ld version 2.15.91 20040725
[---omitted---]

How to get ld version 2.15 instead version 2.15.91 20040725?
