Not too sure :| For starters, just incase, run these two lines:

$ /bin/ls -al /bin/make /bin/make.exe
$ cygcheck -c make

If neither, first showing the file information, and the second saying
nothing about make's version, give you any informative info then you don't
have make installed. If so, return to setup and install it :-)

If you have it installed re-install it, and if make still doesn't show then
reply with the output of `cygcheck -svr' at a *non-compressed* plain text
attachment.
