It's a simple matter of updating config.guess and config.sub in the
gmp-2.0.2 toplevel directory. You can copy those from another GNU
package that uses them and has the workd cygwin in it. Or, go to
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/autoconf/ and get the latest ones from
CVS (look for cvsweb on the page and click on it, and the get
config.guess and config.sub).

Pre-built gmp-2.0.2 (you did search the mail archives, right?):
