I doubt this is the whole story, but blanks in
directory names can cause trouble for our build system
so avoid them for everything associated with your build.
Also, cmake-2.8.1 is a quite buggy old version of cmake.
Try cmake-2.8.5 instead.

This may just be cut-and-paste errors for your e-mail, and not what
you really used, but the
generator name is "MinGW Makefiles". Also, the install prefix
is specified with the -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/whatever option.

If getting rid of all blanks in directory names and using a modern
version of cmake doesn't completely solve the issue, we will likely
need more information to help you.
To capture that information, start the build again in an initially
empty directory, and capture the full output of both the cmake command and
the mingw32-make command with VERBOSE=1 option, e.g.,
mingw-make VERBOSE=1
and send those two files as attachments to this list. Also, please
tell us the version of MinGW that you have installed.
Others here have had good experience with the "MinGW Makefiles"
generator so they may be able to help you out if you want to stick
with that generator. However, if you are willing to try a different
generator my own Windows (wine) experience is with the "MSYS
Makefiles" generator which requires a modern install of both MinGW and
MSYS. The new (2011-08-03) MinGW/MSYS automatic installer at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Automated%20MinGW%20Installer/mingw-get-inst/
provides that in roughly 5 minutes of download time. That install
gives you the option of using either the "MinGW Makefiles" or "MSYS
Makefiles" generator depending on how you set your PATH.
