I don't work for Microsoft; AFAIK, they don't even acknowledge the 
problem.

As for Make maintainers, it's not their problem.  The only way to fix 
this outside Microsoft would be to find what exactly causes NTVDM to 
crash, and then see how can we work around that in the DJGPP library.  
But for this to happen, someone who has access to a W2K machine and 
enough motivation to spend some effort, should dig into the problem and 
come up with the details: what is it in the way DJGPP programs invoke 
other DJGPP programs that makes NTVDM puke.
