Should the text in tests/README be updated then?  I was just following the instructions, as it says:

To run the test suite on Windows NT or DOS systems, use
"perl.exe ./run_make-tests.pl".

You need a Unixy shell (sh.exe) somewhere on your PATH to make the test suite work.

I'm closing the bug.

On Windows XP 32-bit:

'sh' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
FATAL ERROR: Cannot determine the value of $(MAKE):

'echo "all:;@echo \$(MAKE)" | make -f-' failed!
