Thanks.

The problem seemed to sort itself out (kind of).
Moving the entire project to another directory and starting make again worked 
fine. I take this to mean there was no problem with my makefile. Rather, I think 
it may be a problem with the mingw make (v. 3.80).

The directory I originally built the project from was:
C:\Documents and Settings\hwigtil\my 
documents\eclipse\avrstudio\test\data\program\aprogramwithlongpath\default
