I need some clarifications about the two versions of Make that are
involved in this problem:

Chris, your announcement about make-3.81-1 says you used the latest
Fedora Red Hat distribution, and the ChangeLog cites a couple of
patches applied by Red Hat to the official Make sources.  Where can I
see those patches?

William, when you built the binary you provide on
http://www.cmake.org/files/cygwin/make.exe, did you patch the sources
prepared by Chris for Cygwin, or did you patch the official sources of
Make 3.81 as found on ftp.gnu.org?

TIA
