Hello.

 I tried DJGPP's Make 3.79, downloaded at DJGPP's download site (mak3791b.zip
 at http://www.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/) on FreeDOS. It works
 well when it comes to launching executables. But, when running shell built-in
 command
 (echo, dir, copy...), it fails. For example, I created this simple
 Makefile

 all:
        echo Ciao > ciao.txt

 and typed

 make

 . The following message appears on screen:

 The path to COMMAND.COM must be fully qualified!
 That means incl
ding a drive letter and beginning with a backslash.
 For example C:\FDOS

 COMMAND.COM assumes this path now:
 <current directory>
 Unable to open file '<current directory>\COMMAND.COM'
 Invalid switch. - /dj100000

 and the file ciao.txt conta
ns

 Starts a new copy of the FreeDOS command shell.

 COMMAND [[drive:]path] [device] [/E:nnnnn] [/L:nnnn] [/U:nnn] [/P] [/MSG]
                        [/LOW] [/Y [/[C|K] command]]
   [drive:]path    Specifies the directory containing COMMAND.CO
.
   device          Specifies the device to use for command input and output.
   /E:nnnnn        Sets the initial environment size to nnnnn bytes.
                   (nnnnn should be between 256 and 32,768).
   /L:nnnn         Specifies internal b
ffers length (requires /P as well).
                   (nnnn should be between 128 and 1,024).
   /U:nnn          Specifies the input buffer length (requires /P as well).
                   (nnn should be between 128 and 255).
   /P              Ma
es the new command shell permanent (can't exit).
   /MSG            Stores all error messages in memory (requires /P as well).
   /LOW            Forces the command shell to keep its resident data in
                   low memory.
   /Y
 Steps through the batch program specified by /C o

 . Maybe Make invokes COMMAND.COM with arguments FreeCOM does not recognize.
 I haven't analyzed Make's source (which is available). No problems occur
 with MS-DOS version of COMMAND.COM.
