The referenced arsh binary was compiled locally for the currently installed cygwin (cygwin version at compile time was 1.5.6) from the windriver-provided sources to work around some problems with the original tornado-binaries. The path to AR is set inside the Makefile like this AR=/path/to/arsh Calling this specific arsh from the bash does work, whatever the cygwin version, so I see no problem with calling it from within make, or am I completely wrong here ??
