Unable to build driverlib for MSP430F5659 with TIRTOS 2.16

When I try building driverlib for MSP430F5659 with TIRTOS 2.16 I get the following error:

C:\ti\tirtos_msp43x_2_16_00_08>..\xdctools_3_32_00_06_core\gmake.exe -f tirtos.mak build-ccs-msp430-driverlib

Going through e2e, I modified tirtos.mak, and verified the following:

• My system is Windows 7, 64-bit
• The compiler path is valid ti-cgt-msp430_4.4.7 (see below)
• oddly enough, when I run '..\xdctools_3_32_00_06_core\gmake.exe -f tirtos.mak all', no error occurs, but no 'MSP430F5659.lib'  is created under C:\ti\tirtos_msp43x_2_16_00_08\products\msp430_driverlib_2_21_00_08a\driverlib\MSP430F5xx_6xx\ccs
• The build fails even for 'MSP430DEVLIST:=MSP430F5529
• There are no whitespaces after makefile lines
• My PATH does not include cywin.exe nor msys.exe 

Please advise.

Here is my makefile:

#
# These variables can be set here or on the command line. Paths must not
# have spaces. If using a Windows PC, the following can be used to determine
# a directory's DOS path (path without spaces):
#
# 1. Open a command prompt.
# 2. Navigate (cd) into the directory.
# 2. Enter the following command:
# > for %I in (".") do echo %~sI
#
# The steps above should provide you with a path similar to the following:
# Original Path: c:\Program Files (x86)\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 7.2
# DOS Path: c:\PROGRA~2\IARSYS~1\EMBEDD~1.2
#
# The final step is to replace all backslashes '\' in the path with forward
