Summary:                    when installing on cygwin, install crashes.
Description: 
When building the buildroot package on cygwin, after running make
menuconfig, make, the toolchain build crashes for ANY operating system
chosen. The uClibc/Rules.mak file includes

INSTALL=install

If this line is changed to

INSTALL = /usr/bin/install

The build will continue normally (until other cygwin buildroot bugs pop
up) :) Perhaps this is system configurable somehow?

sounds like cygwin sucks ... hardcoding the path is wrong and making
it an option seems pointless when you can just as easily edit the
Rules.mak file and change it

btw, does running `install -d include/bits` in a normal cygwin shell work
?
works in my cygwin shell ...
