From this error message, your failure is happening at the final stage of
bootstrapping. At this point, the new gcc has been built, and is being used
to rebuild itself as a consistency check. So this could be an error for one
of two reasons: your system gcc (3.4.4) could have compiled stage 1 badly in
such a way that it compiled stage 2 badly in such a way that it didn't
rebuild itself correctly; or it could just be a bug in the version of gcc
that you're building. The latter is more likely than that a bug in the
former could propagate all the way through bootstrap, but either is still
possible.

Yes, it does indeed.

If I were you, I'd file a report in the GCC bugzilla, and then try using
4.3.0 instead, which I can confirm builds OOTB on cygwin.
