[Mono-dev] mono from git will not build on cygwin 32

I updated Cygwin and now it no longer supports compilation of mono with gcc.
There is no way to backlevel it. I found Zoltan's suggestion to use this
configure statement:

"Hi,

  mono master can be built on windows using the mingw cross-compiler gcc,
i.e. install the mingw-gcc package, and configure using:

./autogen.sh --host=i686-pc-mingw32
                  Zoltan"


I'm using mono from git. Cygwin has all the recommended packages and I did
not install the gcc-g++ but installed all mingw packages.  The build now
always stops here. I have reinstalled Cygwin several times and pulled a new
mono each time. I'm wondering now since there is a 64 bit Cygwin and a I
have 64 bit machine should I be configuring with mingw64 or something.
However I had the old Cygwin environment down to a science and now I'm
crippled again. Has anybody seen this yet. This seems like something
configure is failing to generate properly to map ming types to mono types.
Zoltan will know what to do about this if anybody. It doesn't seem like it
could be a bug in ming.
