Okay, I'm sure of what caused this now. The Makefile look something like this.
#--begin Makefile---
SOMEVAR=$(ANOTHERVAR)/etc
include $(DEVDIR)/Makefile.mstr
#--end Makefile---
DEVDIR is defined in the environment. ANOTHERVAR however is defined in the included makefile. I thought make was supposed to try to do full expansion on a second read of the makefile? Seems to have worked before.

Subject: RE: New Cygwin Net Release (make error)
I'm trying the new net release and ran across a problem with make which seems a little weird. It doesn't happen all the time either, more on that later. Here is the error message.
make --directory=types --unix -w recursive
assertion "*p2 != '\0'" failed: file "/src/make/read.c", line 866
0 [sig] make 1232 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to make.exe.stackdump
make --directory=util --unix -w recursive
I took a look at the source but it simply indicates what happened should never happen. Guess that assumption was wrong. ;)
I'm trying to dig into why it happened and if I can fix something on my end but this didn't happen with b20.1 so I thought someone else might be interested.
