I don't know a fix (not being an NT user) but the cause is line endings.

The compiler expects '\' '<newline>' to do continuation lines, but it is
seeing  '\' '<return>' '<newline>'.

Therefore a) warning about unknown escape sequence, and b) much worse,
continuation lines in macro definitions do not work at all, so it all goes
horribly wrong.

Mount modes, binary vs. text?

Or down to not setting "binary" in ftp when you acquired/copied/moved the
original sources?  (though that usually snafus up a compressed archive lots
worse)

ISTR talking to our man Al, whom I have copied this msg, about a similar
thing yesterday.  Al, can you shed any light on this?
