With hbmk, the number of batch files could be reduced from 189 to 107, and this way Harbour itself did a big step towards portability.
Now, by dropping the non-GNU make system, the number of batch file could be further reduced by 86, leaving a mere 20 batches, neither of them critical. It would also reduce number of .sh files from 56 to 15. This would be a great relief for Harbour maintenance and reduce number of possible errors as well as testing scenarios to a controllable level.
