William Sheehan has also tested it. Can a few more folks give the patch a try? Here is the link to the most recent patch: http://www.mail-archive.com/make-w32@gnu.org/msg01157.html Just get the source for make-3.81 and apply the above patch. You can get make from here: http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/ You will need to rerun autoconf/automake after the patch, as the patch does not include the configure script. Once you build it, run make check to verify that the build is working. Also, please try with any makefiles that you have and need to work with windows paths.
