WinXP Pro Cygwin Digest-MD4-1.9 /bin/sh: gcc-4: command not found

[David Christensen <dpchrist at holgerdanske dot com>]

cygwin:

I am having trouble installing the Perl Digest::MD4 module via the 
'cpan' command line program on Cygwin on Windows XP Professional.


I have filed a bug report via bug-Digest-MD4@rt.cpan.org:

    https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=101332


The maintainer observed:

    The 'gcc-4' wil be coming from your perl configuration, indicating
    that your perl was compiled with 'gcc-4'.


His observation appears to be correct:

    2015-01-05 18:38:47 dpchrist@dc8ct591 ~
    $ perl -V | grep gcc
        config_args='-de -Dlibperl=cygperl5_14.dll -Dcc=gcc-4 
-Dld=g++-4 -Darchname=i686-cygwin-threads-64int -Dmksymlinks 
-Dusethreads -Accflags=-g'
        cc='gcc-4', ccflags ='-DPERL_USE_SAFE_PUTENV -U__STRICT_ANSI__ 
-g -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector',
        ccversion='', gccversion='4.5.3', gccosandvers=''


There is no 'gcc-4' in my Cygwin installation:

    2015-01-05 18:39:05 dpchrist@dc8ct591 ~
    $ which gcc-4
    which: no gcc-4 in 
(/home/dpchrist/perl5/bin:/home/dpchrist/bin:/home/dpchrist/jdk1.7.0_25/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Program 
Files/Intel/DMIX:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Common 
Files/Acronis/SnapAPI:/usr/sbin)


I have attached cygcheck.out (some environment variables redacted).


Please advise.


David
