Yes. It's apparently a problem with your makefiles. Looks like you're going to need to figure out a way to fix the makefiles or tweak your application that generates the makefile to remove first '/' in the definition of REPOSITORY. Or just set REPOSITORY to exclude the first '/' before you run the makefile. Unless I'm missing something, this does seem a bit off-topic. Is this really specifically a problem with Cygwin?
