After discussion with Mithaldu/smoker owner above, {MAKE} is
'C:\Perl\site\bin\dmake.exe', not 'dmake.exe' on his machine.
MM_Win32.pm has a is_make_type method which uses a more elaborate RE to
do it. Using is_make_type will probably be the solution. Remaining
issues are, is_make_type is not public API of EUMM (embedding the RE is
the alternative), and testing the whole thing on VC Perl, S Perl and Cyg
Perl.
