It probably means you are using some version of make.exe that is not
the DJGPP port.  GNU Make (which is the one ported as part of DJGPP)
doesn't have such a message anywhere in its sources.

Please be sure to install the DJGPP Make (v2gnu/mak377b.zip from the
same place you got DJGPP), and make sure its directory appears on your
PATH before the other version of Make.
