This was caused by crt0.o being in upper case,  make -d said that it
was rejecting an impossible rule prerequisite '../../lib/crt0.o'
When I renamed it to lower case things started working.  I was 
surprised we were case sensitive here.

I found if I rebuilt make linked to the patched 2.03 library I get this error, 
but if I link to the original 2.03 library I don't.  So, something in
the new W2K updates (both in 2.04 cvs and 2.03) seems to cause make to
be unhappy in some cases.  Sigh.
