Oh yeah, a lot of things don't play nice with ANSICON. We had the same
problem RubyInstaller, make + ANSICON last year.

Please disable ANSICON before attempting to compile from the batch
file, ANSICON will try to hook cmd.exe and the child processes
(make.exe) which will fail and crash.

You can "set ANSICON_EXC=make.exe" to exclude it from being hooked.

The good thing is that Ruby 2.0 doesn't require external tools for
ANSI coloring anymore ;-9

Thanks for pointing it out.
