Please note that the DJGPP port of Make doesn't call COMMAND.COM to run
the commands from a Makefile. It emulates the COMMAND.COM functionality
internally, and the emulator *does* support multiple commands separated
by a semi-colon.
However, it does NOT support the parenthesized command groups. If the
Makefile really needs them, the solution is to install the port of Bash.

I would suggest to test your solutions before you post them, or at least
tell that they are untested. The above will not work, since it is
equivalent to this:
target: files
cd laba_util make
(The backslash causes Make to discard the newline.)
