3.79.1 is ancient, the GNU version being released in June 2000 :-)

The behaviour of

    target: macro += something

appears to be fixed in GNU make 3.80, which was released in October 2002.
(I've just tested 3.79.1 and 3.80 from GNU's ftp site).

Is there not an update for mingw32 for a more recent make?
