Built on Windows XP Professional under current Cygwin 1.5.10 using the 
MinGW's project's GCC 3.4.0 release candidate 1 with a MinGW uname and 
ln.  I removed MD_STARTFILE_PREFIX from gcc/config/i386/mingw32.h to 
prevent link mismatches.

The initial bootstrap failed with Ada enabled due to a "incompatible ALI 
file" error from gnatmake, so I disabled Ada.  Java also was not built. 
  The bootstrap stopped mysteriously half way through, and I had to 
restart it.

There are some patches availible that will improve GCC's functionality 
on Windows.  See the following addresses for these patches and 
precompiled binaries.
