Run the make check outside of MSYS; you'll need to execute the mingw32-make binary to do the testing. The mingw32-make and MSYS do not get along very well together; mainly due to the fact that mingw32-make is modified to tend to windows anomalies such as \ as the path delimiter and ; as the path list delimiter among other things. You may also find that you need to modify the test base results files so that they contain Windows line endings of \r\n instead of \n to get the test to pass.
