``Crashes'' is not detailed enough.  Please post the error messages 
and/or the stack trace you get.  The smallest Makefile which exhibits 
this bug will also help a lot.

But first, make sure you set LFN=n in the environment before running 
Make.  That's because the port of Make that you use doesn't support long 
filenames on Windows 95, and thus you might run into some weird filename 
conflicts (btw, this LFN problem with Make, *is* explained in the FAQ).
