?? On my system :
$ ls -l $(which gcc)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 marco None 21 Nov 13  2011 /usr/bin/gcc -> 
/etc/alternatives/gcc

Alecia,
have you noticed :
  "Warning: There are multiple cygwin1.dlls on your path"

 2604k 2011/03/29 C:\cygwin\home\AL\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0
                  "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2011/3/29 9:10
    Cygwin DLL version info:
        DLL version: 1.7.9

 2791k 2012/10/19 C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0
                  "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2012/10/19 13:39
    Cygwin DLL version info:
        DLL version: 1.7.17


you need to remove the "C:\cygwin\home\AL\cygwin1.dll"
This is likely the responsible of your problem.

Additional suggestion, not relevant for the problem:
you seems to have installed a lot of gcc compiler

but instead of the obsolete

gcc-core                  3.4.4-999            OK
gcc-g++                   3.4.4-999            OK

you could choose to install the next version

gcc4                                     4.5.3-3
gcc4-core                                4.5.3-3

Are you sure you need all the mingw compilers ?

Regards
Marco
