I've never been able to successfully compile Emacs with MinGW or
cygwin... even with 21.3.  With MSVC there are issues such as
having to change all the *.tit files under leim dir to be unix coding
system, but once that's done I didn't have any other issues.

I seem to recall that if you have both MinGW and cygwin installed on
the same box to make sure the MinGW/bin dir is before cygwin/bin in
the path.  Maybe do 'which make' to ensure you are calling the right
make.
