Dumb question, are you trying to build a native Windows vim or are you
trying to create a Cygwin vim? If you are trying to create a native
Windows vim, try swapping g++ with i686-pc-mingw32-g++ and gcc with
i686-pc-mingw32-gcc. If you are trying to build a Cygwin vim, why not
use the configure mechanism and let it figure it out?
