Hi,

I am not using MSYS but Cygwin.
It does appear that I have to explicitely set
ADA_PROJECT_PATH variable even though I am not using any
optional external library.

Once I have set it, it builds fine.

Thanks for helping !

Vincent

PS: I have built AWS within directories with and without spaces, it 
builds well with both.
