Missing host libraries

I've just installed ucLinux 1.1 downloaded from niosforum. make menuconfig is failing, as it requires build a few helper programs using the host gcc (i.e., gcc targeted for the pc rather than the nios). While a host gcc is available, there is no corresponding crt0.o and libcygwin.a library. Thus the compiler works, but programs can't be linked. While I have a normal cygwin installation with full libraries on my pc, I can't use it here because of different cygwin1.dll builds, and similarly I can't just copy over the crt0.o and libcygwin.a files from my normal cygwin environment to the nios2 sdk environment. As far as I can tell, the host gcc came as part of the nios2 uclinux distribution, and the crt0.o and libcygwin.a libraries were simply forgotten from the package. Would someone with a working installation be able to send me a copy, or post them as downloads here?
