	Sounds like a missing library, maybe. Unfortunately, since I've
never so much as looked at Cygwin, I wouldn't know where to look.

	"operator delete(void*)" is a built-in C++ construct.  Presumably
the reason you're getting this is that you've specified "CXX=gcc", which
says that the C++ compiler is "gcc".
	By default, gcc assumes that it's compiling C code. If it's
invoked as 'g++', then it assumes that it's compiling C++ code. So try
configuring with "CXX=g++" if it exists.
	If g++ doesn't exist, then one of the following should work:

	CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-x c++"
or
	CXX="gcc -x c++"

The "-x c++" option explicitly tells gcc that it's compiling C++ code.
In the link phase, this causes it to link in the C++ library.
