The usual practice in the DJGPP ports is to replace the "/usr/local" 
prefix by the root of the DJGPP installation.  Since different people 
install DJGPP in different places, DJGPP v2.03 introduced a special 
feature, whereby any file name that begins with "/dev/env/DJDIR" will be 
expanded at run time to begin with the exact path name of the root of the 
DJGPP installation.

So I would suggest to replace the above line with this:

 NN_DIR=\"/dev/env/DJDIR/share/MELTING4/NNFILES/\"

You don't explain what does ``nothing is working'' mean.  I'm guessing 
that one of the problems is that you left an extra blank at the end of 
the string; it shouldn't be there.  Also, if you insist on using 
backslashes in Makefiles (it's generally a bad idea, see the file 
README.DOS in the Make distribution), you need to double each backslash, 
like you did in the second example above.  The first example most  
certainly will not work.
