Hi Don, I can be almost sure that the mirror I used is http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/cygwin/ It is really outdated. e.g. the binutil version is 20050610-1 cygwin is 1.5.19-4 and python is 2.4.1-1. Maybe you can try that mirror and see if u can reproduce the problems I met before.
Another possible cause: Also I recalled that some time ago, I experienced some postinstall problem when updating cygwin from older version. refer to this: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2003-09/msg01029.html So my system might have some broken packages before building gnuradio and its dependents. Hope this could help anyway.
