Got "Missing separator" error building Cppcheck

Question

I have trouble building Cppcheck in Windows. It's ok while building in Studio, but when I try build.bat, it fails with the following:

Makefile.Release:148: *** missing separator.  Stop.
mingw32-make: *** [release] Error 2

I'm not good with all the makefile technology, but the problematic spot does look broken:

{..\externals\tinyxml}.cpp{temp\}.obj::
    $(CXX) -c $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCPATH) -Fotemp\ @<<
    $<
<<

Looks like something screws the generation of configuration dependent Makefiles. Any ideas?

UPDATE: Could it be related to the fact, I'm building 1.60 using qmake from Qt 5.1?

Using this in the root folder should work:

mingw32-make LDFLAGS=-lshlwapi
