Well, no wonder that int main(){} compiles ok with gcc-3.4.4. This is the
minimal test case.

Do you know where can I find cygwin sources, or at least cygwin patches?

I use the following compilers:
$ g++-2.exe --version
2.95.3-10
$ g++-3.3.exe --version
g++-3.3 (GCC) 3.3.3 (cygwin special)

$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special) (gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)

I need it. There are third parties out there that use certain compiler
version and just won't upgrade. Slight differences in compiler or compiled
code can be a factor.
