Um, yes it is. There is nothing in the top level configuration which
tries to avoid it.
However, unless you are trying to build something that relies on mingw,
you can easily avoid this by just specifying the target. In this case,
I assume that Rolf was trying to build the Cygwin DLL and umount.exe.
So, just build those:
cd winsup
cd cygwin
make
cd ../utils
make umount.exe
cgf
