That is so minimal it has no native compiler, only a cross-compiler. Thus,
you cannot build the simulator. The simulator builds a native application you
run on your PC host.

I'll leave this to the people that know, but you want the gcc from a normal
cygwin to build the simulator, while the cross-compiler from the "win32 SDK"
is used to build for the target (and that won't come with the normal cygwin
package).

That too is a cross-compiler and thus cannot build the simulator.
