Please post the necessary details: the smallest Makefile that shows
this problem, and any error messages you get when you try to run that
Makefile.

Are the programs you run from the Makefile DJGPP-compiled programs, or
were they compiled with some other compiler?

The DJGPP source distribution has some files renamed, to prevent
problems when unzipping the distribution on plain DOS systems, where a
file name such as config.h.W32 is not allowed.  You should not use
mak3791s.zip for building any version of Make but the DJGPP one.  If
you need to build a different version, please download the official
distribution from the GNU ftp site, ftp.gnu.org.
