I thought about (the quick and dirty way) replacing the default system
shell - remember I did that some year ago when working with windos
boxes. But if CodeBlocks has a hard coded setup to cmd.exe that wouldn't
help either...

Yesterday I've invoked mingw32-make from a cywin shell. Think I got the
same error though - but maybe I missed something else. I'll give it
another try next gregorian year.

Cheers,

Felix
