Nope.  That didn't work either.
It seems that all the GNU Makes that have been compiled for Mingw32 have some
dependencies on the cygwin DLL.  I don't know why ?  Maybe it is actually
just the cygwin make dressed up in a mingw32 archive ?

Am I right in assuming that if GNU make was compiled with cygwin (or using a
cross-compiler targeted for Mingw32) and the -mno-cygwin switch is supplied,
then there should be absolutely no references to the cygwin DLL.
