I think it is.

The reason could be that there are different conventions for 
where files are stored in Unix and in MS Windows. Another 
possible reason is that the syntax of the command 
interpreters in Unix and in MS Windows is rather different.

It should be possible to solve these problems, and merge 
make files for different operating systems, using 
conditional statements in the make files.

Greetings,

Jacob
