Did you also install all the programs mentioned in the point 3 in 
 
http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/download/cygwin.en.html 
 
It seems you are missing libgmp. 
 
First install all the packages mentioned in the web-page above. If doing that does not work 
then install 
 
libgmp3-dev 
and give a try. I think you are running into these problems because you just did a minimal installation of cygwin rather than the complete installation. Now you know how to install packages in cygwin, follow the step 3 in the webpage. 
 
Best,
