It seems to me that your Cygwin environment setup might be impacting
your invocation of MINGW make.  However, the right place to go to find
information on using GNU make on DOS and Windows platforms is the
make-w32@gnu.org mailing list.

To the best of my recollection, GNU make 3.79.1 didn't provide a native
MINGW port or if it did, it was definitely "first generation".  I
suggest you grab the latest beta release of GNU make and see if that
works any better for you: it contains a much improved native port of GNU
make to MINGW and MSYS:
