The "make" program that is listing that error message is from Borland, 
probably from another software package (perhaps Delphi or C++ Builder). 
The "make" program that is required is GNU make, which is shipped with 
WinAVR.

You probably have a problem in your PATH environment variable. When you 
install WinAVR it's supposed to install two directories at the 
*beginning* of the PATH environment variable. One of those directories 
is the <installdir>\utils\bin subdirectory where the GNU make program 
resides. The WinAVR README discusses this.
