Description quetschke 2007-03-27 04:24:46 UTC 
This looks like issue 68283 but it is actually another breakage with gmake 3.81.

While testing vq36 with the new, patched cygwin make, mentioned here
  <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-11/msg00013.html>
I found that the build breaks with cygwin posix paths not translated.

The reason is that the new make appears to have a new function macro "abspath"
that overrides the self-defined abspath macro in
  mozilla/security/coreconf/rules.mk
and doesn't provide DOSish paths like the self-defined one.
Replacing abspath with mozabspath solves the problem.
