This probably means your Makefile contains Win32 (drive-letter) style
paths, which Cygwin make does not support.

This statement *prepends* a set of values to the existing value of
$PATH, which starts out with a value from the operating system
configuration.  Those other directories are already in your path from
Windows, as you can see if you look at PATH in a standard command prompt
(or from the GUI: System Properties -> Advanced tab -> Environment
Variables button.)  This likely has nothing to do with your error
because it's totally normal for the PATH to contain those sort of
things.  Having paths with spaces is not an issue and works fine.
