In the Canadian cross scenario, before you build your host x target toolchain,
you must first build and install a build x host and a build x target toolchain.

No, this is the wrong way to do it. (It is the right way for GNU packages, but
not for the Cygnus tree.) Your i586-cygwin32-gcc must be in your PATH. The
Cygnus configure will set CC, CC_FOR_TARGET, and CC_FOR_BUILD correctly for
each module given correct --build, --host, and --target options. Don't try to
set them manually, in the Cygnus tree it's way too complicated!
