wildcard function in 3.77

[Peter Buckley]

I have GNU make version 3.77. I use the same makefile for UNIX SunoS 5.6 and
Windows NT 4.0 SP5. I have a "clean" target that removes files generated by
the makefile. When I say "breaks" I mean it doesn't remove the files- it
doesn't give any error messages. Do I need to update my version of GNU make?
Is there a website that details what changes are made between versions of
make? If I update will it change functionality to such a degree that my
makefiles will need to be changed? I have approx 200 makefiles that use GNU
make. 

Works on UNIX, breaks on NT
clean :
        -$(RM) -f *.map *.out *.pat *.filtered *.img *.dat $(REPORT) *.prom
*.lis *.pci *.exe *.tmp 

Works on NT, breaks on UNIX
clean :
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard Coverage/*.txt) 
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard Coverage/*.cfy)
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *.map) 
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *.out)

        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *.crtmp) 
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *.ascii) 
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *.processed) 
        -$(RM) -f $(wildcard *tlustate)
