As it turns out, I was running make from the MKS Korn shell (and an
ancient version at that).  Under command.com make works just fine,
except as someone else posted, make hangs under Windows in a DOS box.
I've had so little trouble with the MKS shell causing problems that I
didn't even think it might be the cause.

Sorry if I alarmed anyone!
