Fine, but I am trying to test the PATH/Path variable, not slashes. So
to use my test make file, you need to place C:\util in your Path
before running make, and run make with the following command:
make -f w32_cmd_path.mak
The point is figuring out when the call to "make -v" fails. If it does
fail to find make.exe (desired result), then you succeeded in changing
the Path from the make file.
