In file config/win/global.cf is this section:
    ifeq ($(COMSPEC),) #location of command.com
        ifeq ($(OS),Windows_NT)
            COMSPEC := cmd.exe
        else
            COMSPEC := command.com
        endif
    endif

The upper case COMSPEC does not find the default environment variable 
ComSpec.  I do not know enough about mingw32-make nor config files to 
attempt a change.

When I removed the ComSpec environment variable and added COMSPEC the 
installation appears to be successful, I now have:
    Harbour 2.0.0beta2 (Rev. 11587)

I will amend my batch file that loads my development environment for 
Harbour to create the upper case variable; at least, I will try to do so.
