This is an issue with the shell's inability to run "pwd.exe". It may be either a built-in shell, or a separately configured shell. What is the value of the SHELL environment variable, if any ?
See https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Choosing-the-Shell for more details. "shell pwd" is what's used in the NSS build within coreconf to find the absolute path for source files - ie. this is the change that was made 10 years ago. quickder.c is the first source file to be compiled in NSS, which I originally authored.

If run "pwd" by manual in that command prompt, I didn't get any error or warning.
