No, the _mingw_ version of make 3.81 matches RMS's definition of what make
3.81 should be like on MS-Windows.
The cygwin version matches RMS's definition of what make 3.81 should be like
on a posix/linux/gnu/unix platform.
Which is what it is supposed to do.
You can always use setup.exe to revert to 3.80, you know. It *will* still
accept DOS paths.
