Eli, thanks in advance for all your help on this. Results of the
tests you requested are below.

Hmmm...Here is my path setting from the DOS command prompt. Note that
DJGPP\BIN is where it needs to be. (It is all one line of course, but
I broke it into several lines below for readability):
PATH=c:\djgpp\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\;C:\CDROM;C:\BRCD\BIN;
C:\BRCD\COMMAND;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WBEM
Then, for laughs, I added "path" as an action to my hello.o build
rule, expecting to see the same result. I didn't:
PATH=C:\BRCD\COMMAND;C:\BRCD\BIN;C:\CDROM;C:\;
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32
I have no idea where this crazy path is coming from. I checked the
two obvious places: the environment variables dialog in my System
control panel icon, and my autoexec.bat file. The definition of PATH
in my System environment variables is what I expected it to be:
Name: Path
Value: c:\djgpp\bin;%SYSTEMROOT%\system32;%SYSTEMROOT%;
%SYSTEMROOT%\COMMAND;C:\;C:\CDROM;C:\BRCD\BIN;
C:\BRCD\COMMAND;%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\WBEM
(Note: This is the global definition, and there is no override defined
for my own login account.)
...but, the PATH declaration in my autoexec.bat is yet another string:
SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\;
C:\CDROM;C:\BRCD\BIN;C:\BRCD\COMMAND
Observe that, with the exception of my System32 directory, the
autoexec string is exactly the reverse of the one returned from the
PATH command in the makefile. Clearly the path is the problem,
because the makefile (see below) fails on the "gcc -v" step; as you
surmised, it's not finding gcc at all. I still don't understand why
the all-caps ECHO doesn't work, though.
To answer your next question: No, I did nothing unusual in configuring
my system. It is a basic, vanilla Windows XP upgrade.

I presume you mean to do this as an action in a rule. I did this and
the results are at the end of the message. Too long to list it
inline.

Nothing out of the ordinary. Just:

Nope.
