Sorry, I don't get it: did you build Emacs as a Cygwin application,
not as a MinGW application? That is, does Emacs use CYGWIN1.DLL when
it runs, rather than the stock Microsoft CRTDLL.DLL?
If you built a Cygwin app, it won't work: Emacs doesn't yet support
such a build.
If you built a MinGW application, I don't understand how does the
/cygdrive/u/ thingy gets in your way: Emacs should not see such
names. And it looks like it indeed doesn't see them:

See? the only part here that mentions /cygdrive/u/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21
is the Cygwin port of Make. Once Emacs is invoked, it is passed the
usual u:/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21 file names. Even the error message
mentions the Windows-style file name with a drive letter. So why did
you think that /cygdrive/u/ is the problem here?
I'd rather think that the problem is here:
> Converting u:/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21.1.50/nt/CXTERM-DIC to quail-package...
^^^^
This is a wrong file name: it should have been this:
u:/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21.1.50/leim/CXTERM-DIC
^^^^^^
This seems to indicate that "./CXTERM-DIC" is somehow interpreted
relative to u:/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21.1.50/nt, not to the directory
into which Make have just switches, as this line shows:
> make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/u/lyongu/emacs21/emacs-21.1.50/leim'
Could you please look closer and try to figure out why did Emacs use
a wrong file name?
