I want to build VLC in cygwin, but the cygwin-install-package only provide gcc-3.3.3 and gcc-3.4.4, no 3.3.1, and after I build the VLC, it report linker error, it's caused by the gcc version, I've experience before. But I don't know how to get gcc-cygwin-3.3.1? I don't want to build gcc myself, it wastes too much time.

I was able to build using 3.3.3. Use the button on the upper right corner of Cygwin Setup to make sure all the GCC related stuff have matching version. Good luck.
