gcc compile error


I recently installed Cygwin on top of Windows 98 for the sole reason of 
getting access to gcc. When I attempt to compile a simple test program, gcc 
gives the following error: gcc: installation problem, can't exec 'as': no 
such file or directory.

I installed Cygwin directly off the net. I'm assuming I have an incorrect 
PATH setting but I've checked the COMPILER_PATH and LIBRARY_PATH and I've set 
them to include all relevant paths 
(PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib:/usr/include:/bin:$PATH"
COMPILER_PATH="/lib/gcc-lib:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib:/usr/include"
LIBRARY_PATH="/lib/gcc-lib:/lib"). 

Are there other settings I'm missing or did gcc just get installed 
incorrectly?

Thanks for any help.
