If you are using some program that takes a file or path as an arguments,
you will need to change file path, replacing / by \ and
/cygwin/diskdrive by /diskdrive:
For example:
define FILE_Template
(tab here)$(COMPILER) $(FLAGS) '$(subst /,\,$(subst /cygdrive/c,c:,$(1)))'
endef
Another thing is that make takes \ as an escape character, that's why I
put ' character there.
Also you might check that all the tabs are placed (many editors change tab by
spaces) or if not, you are using .ASSUMETAB directive
all:
(tab here)$(foreach file, $(FILES), $(eval $call( FILE_Template,$(file))))
Cheers.

I've changed the file to using this method now (%.r34:%.c in my case)
I've got to apolagize also, the code in my previous post was typed off the
top of my head and things like parenthesis bugs were mostly because of that,
rather than the cause of my real problems.
Now make at least tries to run my commands, but for some reason they are
failing. I'm wondering if this is because I'm on windows? The command is
formatted exactly as it is with my current build process (hand-made batch
file :P) but for whatever reason the command misinterprets the options, as
if there were some strange symbol where space should be. I guess that's as
crazy as it sounds, leaving me stuck with .bat files. :(

What's happening here that I'm missing? Thanks in advance!
You have some obvious paranthesis bugs.
But I think the need for double escaping fouls you.
Please read the chapter on "eval" in info make.
And consider if you really need to use eval here.
Sam is right; this is one of those cases where, given a hammer (and eval
is a hammer with a particularly slippery grip), everything looks like a
nail.
What's wrong with the tradition, portable, been-in-use-since-the-1970's
method of doing this:
all:
for file in $(FILES); do $(COMPILER) $(FLAGS) $$file || exit 1; done
I mean, besides the fact that is totally wrong given -k and also given
parallelism (-j)?
For that matter, what's wrong with the usual method which works properly
in all situations:
all: $(FILES:.asm=.o)
%.o : %.asm
$(COMPILER) $(FLAGS) $<
