I would say: No.

3 times the build was completed and the last it failed.

In each case, the build log shows errors.

A short summary.

1. Build with cygwin snapshot 20130619 and GCC 4.5.3 without parallel 
build (make bootstrap). The build is completed but the log shows:

2. Build with cygwin 1.17.20 and clang-3.1 with parallel build (make -j3 
bootstrap). The build is completed but the log shows:
================================================================

(Notice: the GLib error and the completed build)

I don't know if we can say that the bug is fixed...

(Here is on Win XP 32 SP3, Athlon 64 X2)
