Nothing special: A current cygwin bash (invoked as 'sh') .... $mingw32-make which-sh [Please ignore a syntax error on the next line - it is intentional] /usr/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' /usr/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file Using c:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe as shell. c:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe --version GNU bash, version 3.2.33(18)-release (i686-pc-cygwin) Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. [For the above: '$(SHELL) --version' added to the cmds for the which-sh target ....] Please note that once I apply the patch to delete the dummy temacs.exe file, 'mingw32-make clean' / 'mingw32-make' works just fine and gives me a working Windows emacs.
