The latest Cygwin works very well.  All you need to do is make
sure that gcc.exe is linked to cc.exe and that you do all
builds in a binary mounted directory.

If you want to make changes that require regenerating 
Makefile.in's from Makefile.am's (automake) or 
configure's from configure.in's (autoconf), then you
need to add perl, automake, and autoconf to your 
installation.

The newest version installed very easily and seemed faster
that B20.  It is ve difficult to keep links/versions up to
date for third party things. <sigh>
