Last time I saw, the documentation clearly stated that *only* the GNU
version of make should be used, at least to compile "out of the box".

Sorry, I won't. That is too much pain to support Makefiles for every compilers
and more importantly, various flavours of make in the world. And in the
particular case of Borland compilers and tools, when combined with the
"sympathic" limitation at 126 characters of command.com arguments, this
turns to a nightmare.

OTOH, if you install GNU make on your system, we can consider collaborating
to enable out-of-the-box building of the library with your compiler.
GNU make is available from a variety of sources, but the easiest when you
have a Win32 system is the MinGW port, available at
