COMMAND.COM _is_ a shell on DOS/Windows platforms. The ported Make
should know that `del' is a COMMAND.COM builtin, and should invoke
COMMAND.COM when it sees that command in a rule.
If SHELL is set in the environment to something Unixy, like a port of
Bash, then "command.com /c del" instead of just "del" should be used.
