Not really. This is again a Msys-MinGW story. If you have "MinGW 
Makefiles" as a generator, cmake checks if there is any sh.exe in the 
path (there shouldn't be any, since we don't use Msys, which provides 
on). If it finds one, cmake immediately stops, since it thinks, we are 
running msys and not windows cli. One possibility would be changing sh 
in the cmake files to "bash" or "win-bash" or whatever only for Windows. 
But this is not a big problem, we also could use aliases or something 
like that.

Thanks,
Werner
