Below is a MAKEFILE that will not link at the end.  Everything works fine
except that when it gets to the final command I get an error.  The MAKEFILE
is below (the command that gives me problems is marked with **).
Everything works fine except for the line that attempts to create the test
program executable (the line marked with **).  When that command is run I
get the following message from MAKE:

Fatal: Command arguments too long

I am using MAKE version 3.76.1 and DJGPP (of course) to compile my C source
code.

Help is appreciated,
