I did try that too, but same errors:

cd g:/MingW/src/inet/bind/win32utils ; \
perl ./makeversion.pl
/usr/bin/sh: cd: g:/MingW/src/inet/bind/win32utils: No such file or directory
Can't open perl script "./makeversion.pl": No such file or directory

I don't think it's GNU make's fault (I've used djgpp's version for years)
But rather the inferiour shell in MSYS.

Thanks anyway.
