Subject: Cygwin 1.3.10 : problems with make (3.79.1) when using windows mode (--win32 switch)

Hello.
Since my upgrade to the latest make and cygwin a previously working makefile stopped to work.

The make program tries to execute the commandline directly and cygwin execvp() could not find the file.

The command line is in the form "c:\directory\sub\prog  parameter ... " and the called program is a dos program.
The make program returnes the error "make : "C:\directory\sub\prog" Command not found".

I was able to solve the problem by forcing make to use always the shell when in windows mode.

My environment is 
Windows 2000 german, Service Pack 2
