You should be happy. "Nothing to be done for 'all' " means that
vclient is ready (it already exists).

Your makefile contains:

#$(CLIENT): $(patsubst %.cpp,%.o, $(VCLIENT_SOURCES)) $(patsubst
%.cpp,%.o, $(MOC_MODULES))
#	$(CXX) $^ $(CLIENT_LIBS) -o $@

You just commented out the recipe which would have told make how to
create $(CLIENT) a.k.a. vclient.

If you delete vclient and run make, you'll get the following error:
make: *** No rule to make target `vclient', needed by `all'.  Stop.

The # character acts as a comment for make. You should try
uncommenting these two lines and running make again.
This is a problem with your makefile, not the make. It is also not a
Cygwin problem. You would get the same result on Linux with the
commented out lines.

If you want to see what make is "thinking", use the -d option.

HTH,
Csaba
