We've had reports that the GCC in the release does not work.  It's
due to some questionable code in ~libiberty/choose-temp.c.  The code
has since been updated to understand that CYGWIN != WINDOWS but the gcc
in the distribution was built with that code so it gets confused by
some environment variables.

Or, at least that is what I think is happening.
