If you could do this to help me figure out what's going on:

Use WinAVR 20030115, but move sh.exe out of the \utils\bin directory. 
Then try building your project. Do you get the same errors?

I want to figure out if it's sh or make that's causing the problem.

Here's the overall problem. There are several different sources for 
Win32 executable versions of make, sh, and Unix / GNU utilities. I'm 
trying to figure which combination or set works the best and with the 
most computers. What may work for me, may not work for everybody 
else. That's why I put them in a sperate directory (\utils\bin), that 
way if you come up with a better set that will work for you, you can 
replace that directory in your PATH statement.

If anybody has any better suggestions, links, executables for these 
utilities please let me know. I prefer to stick with the most common 
Unix / GNU utilities and not add new packages (like a different 
replacement for make).

Let me know how it goes....
