The latter is the way I've always done it.  But people do it also with
the \build directory underneath their \src tree.  It shouldn't cause
anything to blow up.

I wonder if your MinGW and MSYS toolchains are fighting each other
somehow.  What happens when you use the MinGW only generator, and then
use mingw32-make at a Windows command prompt?  It would be best if
there's no MSYS at all in your PATH for that.
