Following steps were followed:
./configure --host=mingw32 --prefix==/cygdrive/c/source/vc/mixer/libmad
Configure step goes fine. The prefix is the dir I want to install to e.g.
c:\source\vc\mixer\libmad which already exists.
make also works fine
make install goes like this:

It looks like ranlib is being passed the cygwin version of the path but it
doesn't recognize it as it's part of mingw and only allows normal Windows
paths. What shall I do about this?
