Full ACK.

The same is true for Cygwin. At work I'm involved in re-engineering a
cross-platform build of x00.000 C/C++ source files in x.000 projects
in a non-recursive (http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/books/rmch/)
fashion using GNU make. I did a very detailed evaluation of the
enviroments available for Windows. Cygwin is the only actively
maintained based on current GNU sources. All others (somewhat
surprisingly) incl. MSYS are based on obsolete forks tending to cause
weird issues sooner or later...
