The error output would seem to pretty clearly indicate the problem:
something in the build is not happy using a path that contains spaces
(ie. "Documents and Settings").
You might be able to figure out where that path is being used and insert
quotes around the path and/or backslashes to escape the spaces, but it
might be simpler to just build in a path with no spaces (ie.
C:\build\gcc\here).
