I'm pleased to hear that.

Perhaps the path represented by $(CURDIR) includes white space?

I'm rather surprised that you didn't need 'del "$(CURDIR)\$@"' here too.
It would have been bad news if you'd also needed it in the 'ar ...'
command, particularly if '$^' were to be expanded into a list of object
files, (the more usual case), than just one as in your case.
