make fails to change directory.

Hi,

I have a problem that is pesting me for a long time, and I could not
find reference to it anywhere.

Whenever I am compiling something with "make" and there is somekind of
nested make, it fails with the following error:

cd fdlibm; make -f Makefile.ref all
/bin/sh: line 0: cd: fdlibm: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [all] Error 1

This error is not restricted to a single soft, but I've encountered it
in many place.

The workaround I have is to go into the corresponding makefile and add

SHELL = bash

This would resolve the issue, but needless to say, the change is
annoying especially when the Makefile is created by a "configure"...

Can someone help me with that?

Thanks in advance

Attached is my "cygcheck -s -r -v"
