Where can I find old Cygwin repositories?

I need to compile a nios2 GCC toolchain which is compatible with the
Cygwin that Altera included in the Nios 5.0/6.0 product.

Does anyone know where I can find a coherent snapshot of a Cygwin
repository as far back as  2003('ish)?

My problem is that the __getreent() entry does not exist in that old
Cygwin installation that Altera in their wisdom included in Nios
5.0/6.0. I don't know if this is the *only* problem or whether other
incompatibilities where introduced at the same time.

The Cygwin that comes with Nios 5.0/6.0 is not complete enough to
build a GCC toolchain.

Some more details on what I'm working on:

The real solution to this problem involves twisting the arm of Altera
not to include a version of Cygwin, IMHO.
