I've never built on Cygwin or Windows, and I don't even know what is
broken with the latest GNU Make from Cygwin, but I assume someone has
reported this problem to the Cygwin team with a simple test case?

It seems like this has been a problem for a long time.  Why isn't it
fixed yet?

Searching the Tech-Talk archive, I found:

  http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/tech-talk/2009/msg00048.php

This makes the problem at least 1.5 years old.  This is just silly that
we still have this problem and new people are still having a hard time
compiling on Cygwin.
