Instead of gmake and bash, are you able to use 'nmake' (that comes with MSVC)? Obviously, that is a non-Cygwin suggestion, and this is a Cygwin mailing list, so we wouldn't be able to help you with that here. However, by simplifying your call chain, the problems that you're experiencing might go away.
