What shell does FreeDOS use, and what do you get from that shell when
you type "cd" with no arguments?

The following two lines of the top-level Makefile:

    SHELL=3D/xyzzy/command
    MAKESHELL=3D/xyzzy/command

are there to make sure command.com (and not some other shell) is used=
,
so that "cd" returns the current working directory.  If FreeDOS has
its own incompatible version of command.com, that might explain the
problem.

Maybe it's time to replace this trickery with $CURDIR, which exists
since Make 3.77.

Do you mean the DJGPP variable is not set at all?

Yes, I upgraded because 3.4.3 has bugs in the debug info it produces,
which I bumped into when working on GDB.
