Problems upgrading from 2.95.3-5 to 3.X on cygwin

Okay, On a whim, I decided to upgrade to GCC 3.0.3 on my box.  Following
David Billinghurst's instructions, everything went fine until 'make
install', where it failed with the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/james/gcc-build/fastjar'
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/james/gcc-build/fastjar'
/bin/sh ../../gcc-3.0.3/fastjar/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin
  /bin/sh /home/james/gcc-3.0.3/install-sh -c  jar /usr/local/bin/jar
chmod: changing permissions of `/usr/local/bin/#inst.328557#': No such file

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/james/gcc-build/fastjar'
make: *** [install-fastjar] Error 2

After doing a little investigating, I found out that it's trying to chmod
`/usr/local/bin/#inst.328557#' instead of
`/usr/local/bin/#inst.328557#.exe'.  Any idea what might be causing this?
Thanks in advance.
