Follow-up Comment #5, bug #40344 (project make):
For the record, the place where the long file name causes trouble is in
name_mtime, where Make calls stat to get the file's time stamp. It looks like
Windows prepends the current directory to the file name, without paying
attention to the fact that the leading string of ../../.. makes the absolute
file name shorter. The result of prepending the current directory is longer
than 259 characters, so stat fails, and Make treats the file as non-existent.
One possible workaround is to use $(abspath), but I didn't try that.
