  No.  No way on earth did it ever run that file.  If the file command says
linux, then it IS linux.  You must have overwritten your cygwin version at

  I don't know of any but it's probably there are some out there, but if your
compiler works and it's only your binutils you've got problems with, it's
trivially easy to build cross-binutils from source on cygwin.
