So, I searched a bit more, and found some postings that seemed to say that
escaping the : might work:

http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin AT cygwin DOT com/msg70907.html

However, that fails on both version 3.80 and 3.81:

$ make -f mk
make: *** No rule to make target `c\:/hoffman/foo/foo.c', needed by `foo'.  Stop

Hoffman AT VOGON ~/foo
$ ../make381/usr/bin/make.exe -f mk
make: *** No rule to make target `c\:/hoffman/foo/foo.c', needed by `foo'.  Stop


So, I am guessing there is no way to write a makefile that will use
make 3.81 that will work with Microsoft's cl.  Is that correct?  Or am 
I missing something?  I can change cmake to put anything I want in the generated
makefiles, but it will have to be something that is valid for cl.

Thanks.
