Something didn't run for me immediatelly when I tried to use 
Makefile.dos etc. Then I simply copied scripts djconfig.sh and 
djmake.sh from sources of port of gcc-2.8.1, slightly editted them 
and there were no more problem to use configure scripts without 
any more altering.

I built make-3.76.94 at first with djdev202 (980726) and after that 
with djdev201 to make sure the problem is not caused by alpha
of libc.a and found there is no difference.

As I said there were no changes except 2 small additional shell 
scripts. I can send them to You.
