I have the same problem with my patched Cygwin GNU make 3.81 (Two patches
applied, see 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/make-w32/2006-11/msg00025.html).
The stock Cygwin GNU make 3.81 is too b0rken to run this.

$ cat -n Makefile
    1  all:
    2          test -f C:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Cmake/Foo/Bar/some.file
    3          $(MAKE) foo
    4
    5  foo: C:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Cmake/Foo/Bar/some.file
    6          echo foo
$ /usr/local/bin/make
test -f C:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Cmake/Foo/Bar/some.file
/usr/local/bin/make foo
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/mk/5'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `C:/Program Files
\(x86\)/Cmake/Foo/Bar/some.file', needed by `foo'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/mk/5'
make: *** [all] Error 2
$ /usr/bin/make
Makefile:5: *** target pattern contains no `%'.  Stop.
