Msys is ok with gcc, but it cannot handle msvc flags proper, since anything
prefix by '/' is evaluates to a path. I.e. /MD is evaluates to C:/MD.  

Msys make is indeed measurable faster than cygwin make since its runs as a
native win32 binary.  Thus I use the cmake msys generator when coding with
eclipse+mingw.
