No, when I set the SHELL variable nothing changes. I don't have the cygwin\bin in my PATH, to see if it works. So when I start the make I get bin\sh: command not found -> this is why I think it is still trying to use the cygwin sh shell.
Not shure if this is a bug...!? Anyway, I will try to use MinGW .. hope that it works correctly.
