Actually, I have :) But, since bash is so "nice" about passing stuff
to DOS, it defaulted to DOS' echo instead of the one in /bin. (BTW,
I have all the below installed to.) So, I went through Makefile and
Makerules to change all the appropriate instances of echo to /bin/echo.
(Leaving variable names and such with "echo" in them alone, of course :)
Anyway, Makefile now tells me this:

bash-2.03$ make
Makefile:134: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8
spaces?).  Stop.
bash-2.03$ 

Der .. line 134 of Makefile is:

all-Subdirs-files = $(wildcard $(addsuffix /Subdirs, $(config-sysdirs)))

Oh, I went and changed the necessary "echo" statements in configure too.
Didn't seem to make a difference.
