For b19 make to act as it did in b18 you need to have "SET 
MAKE_MODE=UNIX".  Also, to get anything to work correctly you must get 
the sh.exe and cygwinb19.dll update from Christopher Faylor's page.  If 
you communicate with NON-CYGWIN programs from bash you will need to "SET 
CYGWIN32=notty" before executing bash.  The tty setting must not change 
for that session of bash or the child process will be confused and will 
cause aborts with core dumps.
