I think at least this part of your problems is due to another bug in
setup.exe 2.194.2.15. (I've looked briefly for relevant discussion here
and on cygwin-apps and seen none -- sorry if this is already known.)
According to http://www.cygwin.com/packages/, the gcc package contains
72192 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/c++.exe
35328 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/c++filt.exe
72704 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/cpp.exe
0 2001-06-17 22:02:45 usr/bin/g++.exe link to usr/bin/c++.exe
If you look in setup.log.full I suspect you'll see that extraction of
g++.exe failed. I suspect current setup.exe is not dealing with links
in tarball packages correctly.
One of my users alerted me to this problem in my prc-tools package
today. Files listed as "link to [previous file in tarball]" were not
being extracted by setup.exe 2.194.2.15, and would be absent from the
resulting installation. OTOH setup.exe 2.125.2.10 given the same
tarball extracted them correctly.
