The answer seems to be: make sure you are using the tools in a current
tools.zip.  Neither Andy nor Uwe were.  Both the version of make.exe and
cygwin1.dll are critical.

It's also wise to have a fairly recent version of Perl (628 or later), as
some earlier ones made errors in calls to system() (as used in Rcmd
SHLIB) on Win 9x.
