Well, here is my own quick fix which is not so "peaceful" but works. Simply
REM the "SET PATH=F:\BC5\BIN;%PATH%;F:\BC5\BIN\CBUILD~1\BIN" and reboot the
machine when using Swarm. However, next time I am going to use Borland C
compiler I will have to de-REM it. 

Thanks for the "type make" tip though. Very clever!
