[bug #41830] make cannot find an existing file

[Eli Zaretskii]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #41830 (project make):

Why did you decide that Make did not find the file?

My reading of the log is that Make invoked the recipe commands via a temporary
batch file (because your commands included shell built-in commands like 'cd'
and 'if'), and that batch file exited with exit code of 2:

CreateProcess(C:\Users\t\AppData\Local\Temp\make6544-2.bat,C:\Users\t\AppData\Local\Temp\make6544-2.bat,...)
Live child 00000000005a4540 (sub-quazip-make_first) PID 6123872 
[...]
Reaping losing child 00000000005a4540 PID 6123872 
Cleaning up temp batch file C:\Users\t\AppData\Local\Temp\make6544-2.bat
Makefile:39: recipe for target 'sub-quazip-make_first' failed
mingw32-make: *** [sub-quazip-make_first] Error 2

I don't see anything weird in the contents of the batch file, and don't know
why the batch file failed, but the first thing I would try is creating exactly
such a batch file in the directory where Make created it, and then invoking
that batch file from the cmd prompt.  If that fails as well, then it's not a
Make problem.
