The error seems to occur in module webkitdirs.pm, function relativeScriptsDir, line 974:

my $scriptDir = File::Spec->catpath("", File::Spec->abs2rel(dirname($0), getcwd()), "");

Function 'dirname' already returns a relative path (at least in Cygwin), but this path is relative to the "first path", from that the user calls build-webkit. Functions like 'chdir' don't change this path.

E.g., if you run build-webkit from ~ (home), 'dirname($0)' (from webkitdirs) will return 'WebKit/Tools/Scripts' (path relative to ~). But 'getcwd()' will return '/home/<user>/WebKit', not '/home/<user>', because working directory has changed before by 'chdirWebKit()' (in build-webkit, from webkitdirs).
