That still looks strange.  One of those ..\ should be superfluous.

It's no longer really needed, either --- makefile.nt now makes the copy 
itself, if you didn't.

That's strange.  It suggests your nmake or VC++ installation could be 
broken, or your makefile.nt corrupted by earlier editing.

Are you sure you did this from fresh, unmodified CVS source?

Are you sure you had cd'ed to gnuplot/src before running nmake?

What ever went wrong there must be a peculiarity of your local system. 
Others have been running builds using makefile.nt successfully for years.
