(Just in case you thought file names which include quotes will work in 
the w32 port)
File names like:

all: "c:\build\output.exe"

which include quotes will not work on the w32 port at present.

File names will not be broken if they are untouched arguments to 
programs, for instance:

all:
        myprog -r "c:\build\report.conf"

(You may have already known this)
