I think I've already let you know.  Use the version of the compiler that
is released with the product.  There is no reason for you to go to some
other site to find a compiler.  gcc comes with cygwin.  Use setup.exe to
install it, just like any other package.

That link was basically a historical reference.  I've removed it.
