The install.log looks fine.  I'm not sure why you are getting the
following error:

The install target is supposed to copy
 /cygdrive/c/cygwin/netcdf-3.5.0/src/ncdump/ncdump.exe   
to wherever you have specified the install directory is, in this case
 /cygdrive/c/cygwin/netcdf-3.5.0/bin/ncdump.exe

If it doesn't do this because the ".exe" extension is not understood
by the Unix Makefile, just make sure you copy this manually.
Similarly for ncgen.  This may not matter if GMT doesn't use ncdump or
ncgen; it may only use the library libnetcdf.a, which you installed in
 /cygdrive/c/cygwin/netcdf-3.5.0/lib/libnetcdf.a

Just make sure you tell GMT where to look for the library, in whatever
way it wants that information ...
