You don't provide sufficient information to guess where the problem is,
but there is little chance that you'll successfully bootstrap egcs on
cygwin32 using b18 and have it actually work. In fact, I doubt if anyone
has bothered to bootstrap natively on Win32, so you're probably also
running into the usual first time surprises. I always build is using
Canadian Cross and have yet to run into this. If you're just interested
and want to learn how to do this (ie., build on cygwin32 and so on),
that's great; if you, however, want to do real work with egcs on cygwin32,
don't waste your time and download my pre-built binaries. You can then
bootstrap gcc using that if you wish (you *definitely* need the binutils
components that gnuwin32-egcs-1.00.tar.gz distribution has to do anything
useful on cygwin32). The FAQ has the URL.
