You should install make package in cygwin. To do this execute cygwin setup.exe and when the window of packages opened, search make and install it. This is gonna solve your problem i think

You're missing make which is used for processing Makefiles to build programs.

Also to me it seems that this is more related to superuser.com, here is a similar question.
