I installed cygwin 2.738 on a new Windows 7 system and tried to build
a project from source. I have been able to do this in the past, I
wanted to check if there's any problems with this newer version of
cygwin.
when I type make I get an error message about an unexpected token with
an open parenthesis.
$ make
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
