Sorry about the cut off message, the e-mail client we are required to 
use is not the best for mailing lists.

Anyways, to continue the message, the makefile line that generates the 
error is this:

        $(CP) $(libraries) output/sharedlibs/$(TARGET)

Where $(CP) is defined to be CP := c:\progra~1\GnuWin32\bin\cp.exe,
The exe is the GnuWin32 windows port of the standard GNU tools.

$(TARGET) in this case is simply 'debug' (sans quotes).

The version of Make is GNU Make (Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-68) 3.81, it 
come from our tools package vendor, Code Sourcery.  Which, of course, is 
the 'lite' unsupported version.

I can run exactly the same command from the cmd prompt without issue. So 
I'm not exactly sure what the problem may be.  Note that we have been 
using the GnuWin32 toolchain for several years, and this particular 
version of make for 9+ months and have not had this problem before today.

The only recent changes have been the addition of the $(TARGET) 
variable, and the order in which the make targets are executed. 
However, even if I remove the $(TARGET) var the problem persists.

Any one have and ideas or suggestions?
