What is the output of "gcc -v -c hello.c" ?

The problem may be that the prefix directory is hardcoded into the compiler 
and if you configured using a POSIX style MSYS path (like 
--prefix=/path/to/install/dir) then the compiler won't find it. The MinGW 
native compiler gets around this by calculating the prefix directory 
relative to gcc.exe, but this might not be enabled for other targets. 
Ideally it will be easier if you figure out how to enable this, but 
alternatively you may also be able to configure using a Windows style prefix 
with forward slashes, like "c:/path/to/install/dir".
