: What version of make are you using? I remember having this exact problem when
: using the mingw32 make in a bash shell compiling the mingw32 version of the
: allegro wip. Just using normal DJGPP make works though. Can you execute a normal

DJGPP make. Not sure about which version, quite a recent one.

: DOS copy command from your bash shell? Does the DJGPP make spawn command com
: when running external commands?

No. Isn't copy internal in COMMAND.COM?

: Maybe the Allegro makefile should call "command.com /c copy" instead of just
: "copy". This way, it works in bash as well (I just tried it).

Yea! That's it.
