[bug #16132] Quoting problem in 3.81rc1

[Eli Zaretskii]

Follow-up Comment #18, bug #16132 (project make):

Then I suggest that you try replacing the shell as well.  As I already wrote,
I cannot reproduce this with my version of sh.exe.

Alternatively, you could try to debug this and see where exactly the problem
lies.  If you can afford spending some time with the Visual Studio stepping
through the code that invokes the shell, you will find here several people
ready to give advice and suggest ideas.

As yet another possibility: can your build work without a Unix shell?  If so,
rename sh.exe (or remove it from PATH), and see if things work for you.

Finally, you could try building Make with either HAVE_CYGWIN_SHELL or
BATCH_MODE_ONLY_SHELL (but not both!) defined in config.h.  Or if you already
have one of these defined, try undefining them.  Maybe one of these will solve
your problems.  (If it does, please tell the details, so that we could update
the installation instructions.)  FWIW, my Make binary is built with both of
these undefined.
