Problem Building mcf5206elite BSP under Cygwin

Thanks, Joel, for the suggestion to check that I am using bash. I tried the following:
My copy of "sh" doesn't seem to support the "--version" option.
Steve at Steve ~
$ /bin/sh --version
Illegal option --
I can run "sh", but it appears to use a terminal emulation that my console window doesn't support. That would indicate to me that I am not normally running "sh" from the console (but I don't know what "make" calls internally, which probably matters more).
Steve at Steve ~
$ /bin/sh
\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ exit
Bash responds to the "--version" option fine.
Steve at Steve ~
$ /bin/bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)

I can run bash inside of my normal shell (which may also be bash):
Steve at Steve ~
$ /bin/bash
Steve at Steve ~
$
Running inside that second shell, I tried to build again:
cd /rtems/build-4.6.0pre5try2
rm -r *
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/rtems-4.6/bin
../rtems-4.6.0pre5/configure --target=m68k-rtems
make RTEMS_BSP=mcf5206elite
It fails with a "build_alias" problem as before, though in a different directory (I have had it fail in various directories before with no apparent reason - it seems that whatever is wrong with "build_alias" is inconsistent):
[snip]

Interestingly, running "make RTEMS_BSP=mcf5206elite" a second time after such a failure doesn't fail in the same way (whether or not I am running inside a second layer of the shell). It seems that the dependency checks that make does don't realize that it failed, and sometimes go on to the next stage.
To summarize, I think my shell has been bash all along. My consistent problem is that make fails with a "build_alias" error at some point. Where that point is varies, and when I run make again after a failure, what it does next varies. I am starting to think that there is something wrong with my cygwin installation. I will try updating it and repeating the process. Any other ideas of what to try would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

P.S. This time, running "make RTEMS_BSP=mcf5206elite" again after getting the "build_alias" error shown above caused it to install a bunch of stuff then fail, like this:

Running "make RTEMS_BSP=mcf5206elite" a third time skips the installing steps (which makes sense when they have already been done) and again fails on the preinstall step. At least that is consistent.
P.P.S. Other information about my shell:
"MAKE_MODE=unix" in my environment
~ seems to work (I can "cd /" then "ls ~" and see my home directory).
Thanks again for any pointers.

I had trouble building it with 4.6.0pre4 a week or so ago, then had to take a break to work on a different project. 4.6.0pre5 was released in the meantime, so when I got to come back to this project, I downloaded the new tools and RTEMS source and started over. I installed everything with the following script:
