I changed from Make 3.73 to 3.75 since I wanted make to work with long
filenames (it didn't work with pattern rules). But now my old makefiles
doesn't work. I use 4dos and an action like this:

a:
    gcc a.cc |& list /s

wich should send all output to list. The & means that stderr also is sent to
list. It worked with the old make and doesn't work with the new one.

It sayes that & is not a command.

The variable SHELL is set to the 4dos.com as default (I have checked).
I could fixed the first problem with redir. Then he complains that list
is unknown. So I had to fix that by writing 4dos.com /c list wich startes
4dos.com and then list.

But I use 4dos everyware. (I have set SHELL in autoexec.bat)
