Your command is the same as:

$ cygcheck -p mingw32-g[:ctnpu][:ctnpu] | sed '2,$s/\s.*//'
Found 8 matches for mingw32-g[:ctnpu][:ctnpu]
mingw64-i686-gcc-core-5.4.0-2
mingw64-i686-gcc-core-5.4.0-3
mingw64-i686-gcc-debuginfo-5.4.0-2
mingw64-i686-gcc-debuginfo-5.4.0-3
mingw64-x86_64-gcc-core-5.4.0-2

mingw64-x86_64-gcc-debuginfo-5.4.0-2
mingw64-x86_64-gcc-debuginfo-5.4.0-3

ITYM:

$ cygcheck -p mingw32-g[[:punct:]][[:punct:]] | sed '2,$s/\s.*//'
Found 4 matches for mingw32-g[[:punct:]][[:punct:]]
