The only thing I can think of is to only support building with 
UNIX_TOOLS=1 in MSYS, and only support building without UNIX_TOOLS set 
in MinGW. In Cygwin, UNIX_TOOLS=1 is already a requirement. DJGPP seems 
to be able to handle both.

This is not possible in Cygwin. Cygwin does not allow the use of DOS 
commands.
