So, what appears to be happening is that the build.sh script is 
recoginizing "cc" when checking for "gcc". Cygwin does not appear to 
recognize "cc" as a compiler on it - attempted test compiles with the 
"cc" comand. Without changing anything in the build scripts, is there an 
easy way to tell the Cygwin bash enviornment to recognize "cc" as "gcc"? 
I did attempt to use a name-value pair in the bash enviornment (as per 
the bash man page - "CC=C:\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe"), but it did not work for 
me.

Any pointers would be apprecitated - thank you,
Christos
