This is why MS-Windows is not a POSIX system, and why you should not use
MS-Windows.

Then why are you trying to compile and run unix or posix software on
MS-Windows? Stay with MS-Windows software.

Yes, that would be the best solution.
However, notice that it is very easy to extract that information from
makefiles. Even without having to parse and interpret them yourself.
You can use the make -MMD option so that gcc generates a .d file with
all the dependencies. Then you can just cat all the *.d files and use
those dependencies.

No, because in practice, you would just use linux.
