Subject:	Using $(HOME) in makefile

My C development trees are rooted differently on my Unix box at work and my 
DJGPP box at home, so I wanted to use $(HOME) in makefiles to facilitate 
portability, e.g.,

INCLUDE += -I$(HOME)/c/nrjtw/include

where HOME is set in my autoexec.bat: set HOME=c:\

This usage generates numerous warnings on my DJGPP box but not on my Unix box. 
 You can see below the reason:  on the DJGPP box (DOS 5.0, bash 2.03, make 
3.79, gcc 2.7.2.1) the INCLUDE variable expands as

	-Ic:\/c/nrjtw/include

which somebody (gcc?) doesn't like.  I suspect gcc, because the line `ls 
$HOME/c/nrjtw/include' works as desired at the bash command line. The 
weirdness is that gcc thinks the standard headers are now in the above INCLUDE 
directory, which they certainly are not.

For the time being I have the makefile check COMSPEC and define HOME 
accordingly.  But is there a better way?

TIA---jtw

gcc -O2 -g -W -Wall  -m386 -Ic:\/c/nrjtw/include -Ic:\/c/nr/include -MMD -c
