Is there a way to disable this "feature" (perhaps with a command-line switch)?

I like MSYS being in my path (I use ls, grep, etc. from the windows command line 
all the time), but I need to make non-MSYS makefiles.

I have been using this arrangement for a long time and I had no problems with it, 
because I used the gcc compiler which didn't have any switches that look like paths 
to MSYS.

Thanks,
Nate.
