You cannot run Borland programs from DJGPP programs (like DJGPP Make), 
because Borland programs are 16-bit DPMI clients, and DPMI 0.9 spec 
prohibits mixing 16-bit and 32-bit DPMI programs.  So either use Borland 
make or DJGPP-compiled Pascal compiler.

Actually, it does tell you, but you have to listen ;-).  Error -1 means 
that the program was nowhere to be found.  And the reason in your case 
might well be that you use backslashes.  Try using them in pairs, like 
so:

Better yet, switch to forward slashes.
