The attachment you sent has a lot of blank lines in it (at least when I look 
at it on my Linux box) - is that normal? (i.e. one in two lines is blank).

Other than that, I see nothing suspicious in the file..

Could you provide a minimal testcase that reproduces the behaviour?

Is it always the same command? If so, which?

.. and the filename of the file it wants to create is empty? odd..

I don't know much about nmake, but the only reason I see for it failing under
Bash and not under cmd would be a difference in environment.. A minimal test
case to reproduce the problem would be nice..
