This works fine for me (Debian GNU/Linux 2.2, GNU make 3.79.1).
Also, that syntax has been valid for as long as I've been using GNU make
(over 10 years, since 3.5x something :).
Obviously, the l3.c file does exist in the current directory, and you
didn't confuse the "l" with a "1" or anything... and you don't have a
case-sensitivity error, right (like the file on the disk is really
"L3.C" or something)?
Other than that, I can't say. I'm really not very familiar with NT.
Try using the -d option and see what make says.
