In particular, as you noted in the gcc mailing > list, Cygwin could be a problem. You're right; I can't fix the problems. It would help if someone would post cygwin gdb results to gdb-testers so that we know if gdb even builds and the test suite runs. The last cygwin results were from Raoul Gough on 2003-04-28. I've gotten into a mood where if gdb-testers doesn't contain any recent results for a platform, then I don't care too much if that platform breaks. Which is actually a bad mood because that includes major platforms like solaris and cygwin. Also please note that the decision to remove expect+dejagnu came from the Gcc Summit and was announced by Ben Elliston, who's going to do the actual removal on 2004-06-11, unless someone objects.
