See below - we are no closer to a solution, sigh.

There is but a single bash.exe on the system and the makefile you sent works
perfectly on both Cygwin and MinGW.
Your example did inspire me to try "gcc -o x x.c -DLONG=01234.....89" instead
of "echo". That, however, works perfectly as well. There must be something much
more specific that is causing this. For the moment I have run out of
easy-to-test ideas though.
