What's wrong about that line? The Perl pointed to in INSTALL.W32
doesn't seem to have any problems with it (other implementation of
"system"?).

Both worked for me today on a Windows 98 systen (well, maybe there
were error message in between, but finally it came out almost as
desired without intervention), using apparently the same make as you
did, and mingw32 (obtained from the URLs given in INSTALL.W32). Maybe
that make binary doesn't mix too well with the Cygwin package?
Strangely, however, I got error messages for unknown commands for each
"if errorlevel 1 goto ..." and "echo ..." in the .bat files. I have
no idea why that was.

For some reason, the SSL test failed when I tried it because the
CAfile wasn't in place, wasn't correct, wasn't found or whatever.
Finally after same attempts to fix the problem it went away,
but I have no idea what was the problem, nor what was the solution.
