Why is a mingw build trying to compile a cygwin-specific test? You
didn't call configure correctly to let it know that you intended to do
cross-compilation. Try this:
./configure --prefix=/cygdrive/c/sds/src/top-mingw \
--host=i686-pc-mingw32 --build-i686-pc-mingw32
That will automatically tell configure that you are doing cross
compilation, and default to finding CC=i686-poc-mingw32-gcc without you
having to explicitly request $CC.
The only way to expect sane results when cross-compiling for mingw from
a cygwin environment is to not lie to configure about the fact that you
are cross-compiling.
