Hi Erik:
Please review this simple patch extending the recognized make versions
in configure to 4.0, which was recently released and is already
default in Cygwin. I also removed the version check in NewMakefile.gmk
since it seems redundant having already done it in configure. They
were also not in sync.
I have successfully built on Windows with make 4.0 and it seems to
work fine.

Looks good to me.
