Thanks for the pointer to CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log. It helped me
figure everything out. The whole problem was that cmake found a
gmake.exe in my path from my matlab installation. It appears to prefer
that over the cygwin make.exe which is ahead of gmake in my path.
Anyway, I cleaned all the windows junk out of my cygwin path, deleted
the cmake cache files, and everything works fine.

NT
