With the latest Cygwin I have been configuring succesfully using

CC="gcc-2 -L/usr/local/lib" CXX="c++-2 -L/usr/local/lib"
./configure  --enable-multibyte --with-python --with-perl --with-CXX --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
--docdir=/usr/doc/postgresql-- 
-no-create --no-recursion

I imagine the same will be required for gcc 3.2
