I am trying to build LibreOffice and it does not appear to be working.
After a while of building I keep getting the following echoed to the
console constantly. Usually in-between build target echos:

/usr/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/usr/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
I looked into it using a shell override, the debug make flag, and a
script (which I used as the shell, source below)
#!/bin/sh
echo "$*" >&2
sh "$@"
And determined that somehow, when
CreateProcess(D:\cygwin64\bin\sh.exe,D:/cygwin64/bin/sh.exe -c "printf
\"%s\n\" \"{gigantic list of space separated paths}\" >>
D:/cygwin64/tmp/gbuild.cgwaBE ",...) is called, the input "argument" is
getting truncated. I am assuming that things are not getting build due
to this. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am not proficient with c++
build tools.
that's some good investigation :)

it's a well known problem, and it looks like for you the *workaround*
for the problem doesn't work, which is odd ...

the command must be this from Tempfile.mk

	$(eval gb_var2file_helpervar := $(shell printf "%s\n" "$(gb_var2file_curblock)" >> $(1) )
... however: on Windows you should be using a GNU make 4.0 or newer,
where Tempfile.mk would use the built-in $(file) function to write.

somehow you're using make 3.81 or 3.82, which does work on unixes but
apparently not on Windows, and since we have LODE to download a newer
make automatically it's not worth fixing that.

i think we should check for this in configure:

Well, that is the odd thing. I am using the the make that lode gave to me. From what I can tell, the log produced by using "-d" reports that the submakes that get used are also from the lode thing. The version is 4.2.1.

CreateProcess(D:\lode\opt\bin\make,D:/lode/opt/bin/make -d,...)
GNU Make 4.2.1
