What happens if you type `f:\bp\bin\bpc'? Does it work? What make is
saying here is that bpc returned exit code -1. Normally non-zero exit 
codes indicate errors, so make quits at that stage.

I haven't used bpc, but I would have expected it to take some command
line parameters, to tell it what to compile. Is this not the case?
Your makefile doesn't contain any.
