You've entered a particularly annoying level of hell.  If you really 
want to get moving quickly, you'd be much better off installing Linux in 
a VM and bypass this whole Cygwin mess.  I use Ubuntu in Vbox OSE every 
day and it's fantastic.  U-boot is a fast build, so you don't need to 
worry about performance.

regards,
Ben
