I think the problem here is that unquoted parentheses are being
passed through to sh.exe, but parentheses have special meaning
to most shells.

Try changing /DSHAREDLIBIMPORT=__declspec(dllimport)
to "/DSHAREDLIBIMPORT=__declspec(dllimport)"
and /DSHAREDLIBEXPORT=__declspec(dllexport) to
"/DSHAREDLIBEXPORT=__declspec(dllexport)"
in (what I presume is) makefile.msvc-dll

It's just a guess...
