Maybe installing a gcc-3.3 based Cygwin-release like the '1.6.6' and 
then building gcc-3.2 with it would succeed immediately :

http://www.filewatcher.com/m/cygwin-1.6.6.zip.496537660.0.0.html

Or simply finding a gcc-3.2-based Cygwin-release from the net....

It can also be possible that gcc-3.2 expects some old Cygwin-runtime as 
the binutils & C-library components, trying to get gcc-3.2 to work
with uptodate binutils and Cygwin-runtime may simply be impossible or 
very hard :(
