I tested with different makefile:
First the current implementation used by hugin (SHELL variable quoted for shell):
SHELL="c:/windows/system32/cmd.exe"

all:
	@echo ${SHELL}

make -f test.mk outputs:
SHELL is sh.exe
which is obviously wrong.

Removing the quotes (SHELL=c:/windows/system32/cmd.exe) results in correctly output:
SHELL is c:/windows/system32/cmd.exe

And now a last try with SHELL=c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe (with windows path separators and without quotes) gives the same output.
So gnu make processes the SHELL variable different than others

So I modified the makefile generation to the last variant (commited as
efade34da4f6). Hopefully this fixes the issue of selecting the wrong
shell.

This can not be happen. Hugin is always using make.exe in hugins path.
