The use of secondexpansion in the prequisite and make version 3.81 solved the problem.

Thanks for the help both of you :)

You need no non-free tools: you can certainly build make-3.81 by
downloading MSYS and MinGW gcc, both from mingw.org, and running
  ./configure && make
It might be much easier, though, to use this prebuilt binary, also
from mingw.org:
