You shouldn't have to do that.  If the Makefile has a line which says 
SHELL=/bin/sh, then the DJGPP port of Make 3.75 will look for sh.exe, 
sh.com, sh.bat etc. along the entire PATH.  So you only need that sh.exe 
to be somewhere on your PATH, that's all.

You will need to rewrite all the conio functions to use BIOS, because 
they don't have a provision for this currently.
