Any Makefile with a single target and command will do.  All you need
is invoke Make with the --debug=jv switch and see that it does not
find sh.exe, although it is on your PATH.  When Make finds a shell, it
should say something like

  find_and_set_shell path search set default_shell = D:/usr/bin/sh.exe

The latest binary from MinGW site doesn't.
