Deepa,

The configure options above use the old syntax for different drives.  The
newer Cygwin DLLs (starting from 1.3.1, I think) interpret the above as,
for example, the share "redhat" on server "f" (which you most likely don't
have, thus the errors).  It probably takes quite a bit of time, too.

I'm not sure what you mean by "this is the only one available" -- Cygwin
has a "gcc" package...  Unless you mean "available for that target
architecture".

One way to fix this is to recompile the toolchain by providing the correct
options to configure.  Another is to provide your own specs file (which is
not mentioned above, BTW, use -dumpspecs for that).  See the gcc info page
for the format of the specs file.
