[Bonmin] Error compiling under Cygwin

[Andreas Waechter]

Hi,

Actually, I replied to the ticket that Jeff had submitted :)

The problem is that Cygwin's GNU make 3.81 does not work properly, see

https://projects.coin-or.org/BuildTools/wiki/current-issues

You need to downgrade your make version to 3.80.

I hope this helps

Andreas
