I just sent you a note on this -- the problem is with your headers, not
with GCC and not with Cygwin. Looking at the preprocessed output you
had sent me, it looks as if you're using the headers distributed with 
PGI, and asm/byteorder.h is incorrect (from an older newlib release it 
would seem).

Dump the PGI headers and install the Cygwin b20.1 headers on top. It's
very hard to help debug if you use a different set of headers than the 
rest of us.

If you're not using PGI (which I guessed because the preprocessed files 
have pgi in the directory names), then you need to somehow sync your
headers with Cygwin.
