It seems that writing make files for Windows is getting more an more
complecated, with many exceptions. Also, make files written for 3.80
and earlier most likely will not work with 3.81. Writing make files
should not be riddled with so many rules like, if you want to use a
directory separator, then you must place the entire filename in
quotes.
