[Chandler-dev] Chandler Makefile change - parcel egg installation changes

[Dan Steinicke]

Also fixes the cygwin make issue: Bug 6915 (latest version of cygwin 
make (v3.81) fails to run "make install")

New versions of cygwin make don't understand DOS paths.  This patch will 
fix that issue by modifying the Makefile to work with the new make.exe.
