If that's the Cygwin version of dos2unix.exe, then I assume you are
also using the Cygwin version of make, which you are in turn running
from a Cygwin bash shell?

Exit code 128 is a "something went wrong but I'm not sure what"
signal. Usually, exit codes above 128 mean that the process was
killed by a fatal signal, whose number you get if you subtract 128.
But there's no fatal signal 0, so 128 is sort of a default "execution
environment not working right for that command". Hence my suspicion
that some non-Cygwin component is at work here.
