Does `./src/minion/makefile' exist? e.g. does

  [ -f "./src/minion/makefile" ] && echo makefile exists

running the above print "makefile exists" ? Does switching 'makefile' with
'Makefile' work (incase you have CYGWIN=check_case:strict) ?

If none of the above are true, can you send us the output of `cygcheck -svr' as
a plain-text *non-compressed* attachment (not inline), as per
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
