One problem I have at the moment is hardware related:
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.1/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: 
final link failed: No space left on device

And I have just 512 MB RAM, but linking a non-debugging version of the 
necko layout library requires 1.25 GB RAM, the debugging version 
requires 1.75 GB RAM and lots of free HD space.  It is not crucial, it 
just lasts very long to link this library if 1.25 GB needs to be 
swapped.  I have some more RAM which I can use so this is not really a 
problem.

If you have enough RAM (1 GB) you could compile it too and then run it 
with gdb.  I'm not in a hurry and I'll be out of town the next week.  I 
try to update my sources and my patchfile to offer a patch which will 
apply against a recent nightly-snapshot of mozilla.
