Versions 4.4.1-1 (default) and 4.4.1-2 (test) of

   make

are available in the Cygwin distribution

CYGWIN_CHANGES
The default version is built with jobserver using FIFO and
the test version using pipe.
In same complex corner case the previous 4.4-1 was reported to
fail and it is unclear if the pipe version is the solution
or just a side coincidence.
Please report any problem on any version.

DESCRIPTION
A GNU tool for controlling the generation of executables and other
non-source files of a program from the program's source files. Make
allows users to build and install packages without any significant
knowledge about the details of the build process. The details about
how the program should be built are provided for make in the program's
makefile.

CHANGES
