I had the same problem with make, which comes with binary distribution. It
was solved after compiling it myself under with MsDev.
When you compile something with sh ./configure and then make it will
understand only unix like stuff. I don't know why Windows like staff (
windows pathes ) are not enabled by default.

Subject: Problems with sed, make and NT4 in general
Hello,
I am running version 1.1.1 and am having some very basic problems under
Windows NT4 and Windows 2000
1. Make does not recognise backslashes
2. sed -f file always reports errors on commands but the same commands
work fine on the command line.
Command Example: s/abc/def/ fails in a file with the error "sed: file
file line 1 Unknown option to 's'" but is the same command is fine on
the command line. e.g. sed -e 's/abc/def/'
3. The NT4 version seems to have significant delays starting any cygwin
based program, but not Windows 2000
I assume I've got a basic configuration problem or two but I can't
figure out what
