You're missing the "make" package. In the future, if you'd like to find
out which package contains a particular command, use the package search
page at <http://cygwin.com/packages/> and search for, in this example,
"bin/make(.exe| )".

P.S. I had a nagging feeling this was somewhere in the FAQ, but couldn't
find it. If it's not there already, could this be added?
