Did not encounter that problem, but I had the Cygwin bzip2 package
installed before building Sage.

I don't know... the problem was that updating from the gcc4 default
package (4.3.stg) to the 4.5.stg "forgot" to update some pathes in
configuration files in the postinst script.
The latest 4.5 package seems to be from october 2011, so I doubt the
problem has been fixed.
