Is it possible that the Cygwin port of Make you are using is
case-insensitive to target names? If so, that's a bad misfeature. I
suggest to ask a question on the Cygwin list about this, perhaps
there's an option to disable this.
-----------
It sure looks like it, but Cygwin make is gnu make. It doesn't have
that problem.
GNU Make has the HAVE_CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS feature, see config.h.in in
the GNU Make distribution. Someone could have built a Cygwin Make
with that feature turned on.
--------------
I didn't know that! Although I should have. The mingw32-make that I
use to build WIndows emacs has that feature.
I've just built a cygwin make with that feature, and got the same
result as the OP.
