Hi Brent/Ankush,
 
Thanks for your inputs...
 
Yes, I'm running the commands from Cygwin shell itself.
 
Even if I set the environment variables (using both Control Panel +
"export" utility in Cygwin), I get the same error:

Are there any other paths to set as environment variables? Does anyone
have a list?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Best Regards,
Piyush.

Hi, 

Are you running the build-webkit and other commands from your Cygwin
shell?  The directions don't seem to explicitly state that this is
necessary, but it is!

Set the environment variables in the Control Panel | System Properties
utility.  Click on the 'Advanced' tab, select the "Environment
Variables" button, and add the variables to the "User variables for
a21612" window:

WebKitLibrariesDir  |  {Path to WebKit}\WebKitLibraries\win
WebKitOutputDir    |  {Path to WebKit}\WebKitBuild
