Follow-up Comment #4, bug #34818 (project make):

Well, _need_ not run autotools, if one is lazy or especially when
building on the native OS itself, provided that he has his own
build scripts or makefiles, etc. When cross-compiling from linux
(or whatever else unix) to windows, djgpp, os2 or whatever, one
usually does use and usually prefers using autotools. There you
have the problems with autotool's PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR.
I do not object to adding OS-specific PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR values
to OS-specific config.h templates, however removing those defines
from make.h _shall_ lead to trouble.
