PATCH: Mingw32 compiler support for make-3.80

[Sudhi Herle]

Hello Paul,

Please find attached a simple patch to teach make v3.80 about mingw32
compiler.

It is built and tested on:
   - Win2k, gcc 3.2

It is built using mingw32 cross compiler on:
   - Debian sid, Debian sarge; mingw32-gcc 3.3.1.

The patches and my contribution are distributed under the terms of the
same license as make v3.80 (i.e., GNU GPL v2).

If you need additional clarification, please ask.

Secondly, I have a second set of patches for the core of make. They remove
the use of bitfields in filedef.h and variable.h. Being an embedded
programmer, I have seen compilers emit truly horrible code when bitfields
are used. In this particular, case, I just made the fields simple
"unsigned char".

Please let me know if are interested in the bitfield removal patch.

Kind regards,
