$ make --version
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.

The "real" home for GNU make has the same statement:
"In the VPATH variable, directory names are separated by colons or
blanks. The order in which directories are listed is the order followed
by make in its search. (On MS-DOS and MS-Windows, semi-colons are used
as separators of directory names in VPATH, since the colon can be used
in the pathname itself, after the drive letter.) "

The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a
dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.
