Follow-up Comment #3, bug #63638 (project make):
It is a subtle feature of the native Windows port of GNU Make that it attempts
to support PATH variables delimited by colons and semi-colons alike. It does
that by converting colon delimiters to semi-colons. Which is a bit tricky,
given the drive letters with colons. So Make has some logic to decide when a
colon in PATH is from a drive letter and when it is a delimiter between two
directories. And a change we made in development of Make 4.4 broke the
fragile logic of that tricky code.
Attached please find a patch to fix this bug.
