Fascinating... where did that second -C come from?  Can you try to
find out?

Please show a the error message in that case.  Bootstrap works for me,
both with -j 2 and without it, but I don't have a dual core machine,
only a hyper-threaded one.

Also, could you please invoke Make from CMD prompt, not from the
Cygwin shell?

Ordinary bootstrap works for me, I just verified that again.  Did you
try in a clean tree, or in the one where the -j 2 bootstrap failed?
If the latter, perhaps the cleaning targets don't do a good enough
job; please try in a clean tree.
