This is caused by using Cygwin cppunit 1.12.1-1 (apparently compiled with 
gcc 4.3.2); use cppunit 1.12.0-1 instead (works with gcc 3.4.4).

I have updated the Cygwin installation instructions for wxPython and GNU 
Radio on the wiki.  The important changes are: (1) don't use cppunit 1.12.1; 
(2) use Python 2.6 (instead of 2.5); (3) for wxPython 2.8.11.0 you don't 
need the patch that was used in 2.8.10, but you do need to patch Python 2.6 
distutils.

I have tested the new instructions (as far as the minium installation of 
gnuradio-3.3.0) and they work for me.  If they don't work for you, send 
details of what doesn't work and we will see if we can fix it.
