Yes, if you look at the cygwin results which have been appearing on
gcc-testsuites, you will see that there are from a dozen to upwards of
80 unexpected g++ testsuite failures, and the unix script is the only
one ever used.  A few of the failures respond to configure
--enable-sjlj-exceptions.  I don't know all the secrets which David
Billinghurst has found to get his recent excellent results, but I push
in other directions, such as configuring at least 8-byte alignments.
Yours is the first report I've seen of success with gnu-pro.
