I believe I've had the same error when doing compile on my machine.

By default under /etc/fstab the mingw entry that I've had was:
c:Mingw /mingw

I had to change that to:
c:/Mingw /mingw for it to work.

I have not had a chance to see why it was defined like that in the first
place.

Hope that helps,
