I spoke too soon. There is a problem with cygwin and Makefile.Common in the
new release. The host utilities are not built with -D_WIN32 which (of
course) causes them to not work at all. In Makefile.Common there is a place
where CFLAGS is set to a value regardless of its previous value. This
should probably be changed so it works with both Linux & Cygwin.
ifdef BUILDING_HOST_UTILS
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# defines for build of native compiled utilities
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall
else # ifndef BUILDING_HOST_UTILS
For Cygwin I can simply change that line to
CFLAGS+=-O2 -Wall
But for Linux that will duplicate the already existing value of CFLAGS.

After making this change everything worked perfectly, as far as I can tell.
I had a lot of trouble trying to build the gcc cross compiler. With this build
and the pre-build cross compiler from hitachi's website everything was very
easy.
Thanks!
