http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#IWFM. A process that dumps core results in a
non-zero exit status (not that 'make' should ever core dump). Did you
try some of the alternatives? Are you sure you haven't clobbered your
exit code?
If you can run 'make' at the command line in such a way that it fails,
does '<make that fails> || echo fail' work?
