Windows Testsuite stuck at configuring timeout

When running the testsuite, it gets stuck at Configuring timeout-1.... I tried adding a verbosity flag to the ENV vars, but they didn't make any affect on the ./Setup args.

Relating to my development setup...I've followed the instructions from http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Building/Preparation/Windows (using MinGW). I was rather surprised when I was building GHC, it threw an error saying that "libmpfr-3.dll" was missing, so I fetched that from a cygwin mirror and threw it in msys/bin, but even after doing that, I got errors saying that it could find certain cygwin libraries (cyg*.dll). So I just installed the entirety of cygwin and it started working fine.

The only ticket I found that is related to this is #1599 (closed), but I'm not sure.

Here's the testsuite run:

$ make test WAY=normal
make -C testsuite/tests CLEANUP=1 OUTPUT_SUMMARY=../../testsuite_summary.txt fast
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/leroux/devel/ghc-validate/testsuite/tests'
make fast=YES

Looks like you don't have timeout, building it first...
make -C ../timeout all
