Recursive Make invocations?

Anyway, the answer to that is in the Makefiles (in nt/ and src/) and
in config.h generated by configure.bat.  If you cannot figure this
out, post them here, perhaps with the full transcript of the bootstrap
from the start till it fails, and someone will have the answer.

Also, do you have some sh.exe on PATH?  If so, try without it.
