IMHO it's always better to go with a Cygwin way of doing things instead
of installing some Unix/Linux thing through some Windows port like this
Symbian\tools thing...

That make.exe was installed by Symbian Qt SDK which is windows native,
nothing to do with cygwin.
And, IMHO, should be avoided like the plague... Just my opinion.
In fact, that make.exe calls a perl script called make.pl:
use FindBin;
use lib $FindBin::Bin;
use tlaunch;
callTool('','\\epoc32\\tools\\make.exe',\@ARGV);
So anyway, the problem is caused when calling a binary present on
windows path that can match a cygwin one, for example running a
./configure script.
After removing make the issue is happening again:
$ make
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: /usr/local/bin/C:\Program
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /usr/local/bin/C:/Program
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this
warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

Can't find C:\Program on PATH.
Maybe when in Cygwin, /bin and /usr/bin should be put in your PATH ahead
of the Windows stuff. I know I've run with C:\Cygwin\bin in the front of
my Windows System Environment PATH variable for years without issue
(though I think some around here might say it's not a good idea).

I put contact lenses in my dog's eyes. They had little pictures of cats
on them. Then I took one out and he ran around in circles.
