Did you use the ./prepare script first if building from Hg (Mercurial) rather than a tarball?

If so, did you use setup.exe since to remove/upgrade autoconf, automake, or related packages? That might have invalidated symlinks.

Also be sure not to mix MinGW and Cygwin utilities - this is a constant source of confusion.
