RW> ... but when I try these under cygwin I get

RW> Target pattern contains no '%'

I've seen this message many times when a target or prerequisite (both
or one of, I can't remember) contains a windows path.  In that case,
make sees a line with two colons and believes it is seeing a malformed
static pattern rule.

Hope this helps,
