I had exactly this same problem. I traced it down to the fact that make
was using command.com instead of sh.exe to execute commands. Naturally,
command.com does not do file globbing (and apparently neither does
build-prc), but sh.exe does.
My solution was to
1. Make sure that sh.exe is in a directory that's in my PATH
2. Set the MAKE_MODE environment variable to UNIX
All this is, of course, assuming that you are using make. If not, then
just try running build-prc from a bash command prompt rather than a DOS
one.
