Rob -
From your output, it looks like a substitution error in the path is causing
your problem. Somewhere in the makefiles '/c/' should be subsititued for
'c:\', but it appears to be substituting 'c:\cygwin\c\'.
As my current system is isn't the 0.7.12, I can't be specific where this
error is located, but I would look at 'c:\abi-0.7.12\src\config\abi_defs.mk'
and review the TRANSFORM_TO_DOS_PATH variable or the CYGWIN_ROOT variable.
The error is probably located there.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
