Reason is that makefile is oriented on bash, and make uses simple sh.
There is some environment variable to set up program for make subshell,
but last time I've tried it, it didn't work. So I just made sh.exe =
hardlink to bash.exe

I think, what you need except basic packages is: bash, make, gzip, grep,
mktemp, sed, fileutils, textutils

Also there is one caveat you should install cygwin with
Default text file type = Unix, for mtools to work correctly.
