Is the port of Make you are using a DOS (DJGPP) port or a Windows
port? If it's a DJGPP port, that's expected behavior: DJGPP programs
cannot access long file names on Windows NT (they can on Windows 9X,
Windows ME, and Windows 2000).
For NT, I suggest to use a native Windows port of Make (sorry, no
URL).
