Not sure how this is relevant.  I'm telling you that judging by the
output of "gcc -v" that you presented, the problem starts with the
invocation of cc1.exe: it didn't display its banner, which it should
have done given the -v switch.

So either cc1.exe was not found (unlikely), or it's corrupted, or
Windows/gcc were unable to run it.  (Is there anything pertinent in
the Windows Event Log?)

Here's how cc1 announces itself in the same command on my machine:

  GNU C (GCC) version 4.8.1 (mingw32)
	  compiled by GNU C version 4.8.1, GMP version 5.1.2, MPFR version 3.1.2,
  MPC version 1.0.1
  GGC heuristics: --param ggc-min-expand=100 --param ggc-min-heapsize=131072
