   What do you mean by ``works best''? How `make' could work best or
   worst? Here is syntax and semantic of GNU Makefile, and `make'
   could support it (works) or didn't support it (don't work, and why
   we need program, which don't work?).

   I've thought, that most problematic part of `make' is fork() system
   call. Ok, MSYS-1.DLL contains it. But `mingw32-make' could spawn
   processes too! So, `fork()' isn't problem! And which parts of
   `make' could work better or worse?
