You must be running an older version of make.  The program defaults to
unix mode automatically.

Otherwise, it sounds like you haven't actually exported the MAKE_MODE
environment variable:

export MAKE_MODE=unix

If you still have problems please send "cygcheck -r -s -v" output as
mentioned in http://cygwin.com/bugs.html .
