Actually, now that I looked at it, it was really my fault. It still cd'd to
the spamd dir but tried to build spamd/utils.c etc then. Ooops, must have
copied those strings from the wrong place. I corrected that.
I can't replace the forward- with a backslash in the target name because
then the top Makefile wouldn't find spamd/spamc.exe anymore. And as nmake
doesn't have problems with the top Makefile I assume it can cope with
forward slashes.
Btw, does nmake support a switch -C which changes in the given directory
before it executes the Makefile?
Cheers,
Malte
