So well I thought I could just use the MSYS Makefiles instead, but

I don't think anyone really addressed your question. Your question seems to have taken on a whole new life....
True. This kind of error is what happens when CygWin paths (MSYS generator) are fed into MingW utilities: the CreateProcess command from mscvrt.dll fails horribly.

Python is probably installed at c:\Python25\python.exe ; /c/python25/python.exe is the CygWin path corresponding to that. The MingW bash is looking for c:\c\python25\python.exe rather than c:\python25\python.exe .
....
Moral of the story, don't depend on python in your build, use cmake scripts if possible, or c programs that you build .... :)
Ideally, yes.
