    _______________________________________________________

Details:

This is a re-statement of the specifics behind BUG: #15942
BUG: #15942 will be automatically fixed when this bug is fixed.

--- TEST ENVIRONMENT:
GNU Make 3.81rc1 on CYGWIN_NT-5.1 x2 1.5.19(0.150/4/2) i686

--- STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure a removable drive mapping with NO DISC inserted.

2. Assuming that the drive letter of such a drive mapping is 'P:', then
create the following makefile:

# FILE: escape.mk
.PHONY : p\:foo
p\:foo : ; @echo $@
# EOF

3. run make and get and experience this bug: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] features]$ make -f escape.mk
make: stat: p:foo: No medium found
p:foo
make: stat: p:foo: No medium found

--- EXPECTED OUTPUT
p:foo

--- ANALYSIS
Since this target is declared .PHONY, make should not try to stat the target,
as a file
