Just to confirm I tried with CreateProcess(), but the same error. OK, now using 
the info at image, this mean the error occurs after print "Making all for app 
Test...", but before print " Creating Test.app/....". So I run "make -n" to see 
what happen, and I get (only copy the relevant lines):

    GNUSTEP_BUILD_DIR="${abs_build_dir}" \
    _GNUSTEP_MAKE_PARALLEL=no)
Making all for app Test...
(cd .; \
        /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/mkinstalldirs ./obj/Test.obj/)
(echo " Creating 
Test.app/....";/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/mkinstalldirs Test.app/.)
(make -f GNUmakefile --no-print-directory --no-keep-going \
        internal-app-compile \
        GNUSTEP_TYPE=app \
        GNUSTEP_INSTANCE=Test \

Could be the problem at script mkinstalldirs? But why works fine when execute 
"make" at shell?
