Some versions of make look for the sh shell, others use the dos shell.
Probably, make is using the dos shell and not sh. As far as I know, make
does not parse the parens, the shell does. And dos does not understand the
parens.
My cygwin make looks at the "MAKE_MODE" environment to determine which
shell to use. Assuming you are running everything using the cygwin bash,
try:
setenv MAKE_MODE UNIX; export MAKE_MODE
then run make.
Alternatively, try make --unix.
