I don't know internals of make well enough. Also perhaps too much functions
has changed from 201 to 202. I even has to delete config.cache and
run configure once more to be able to build make when I changed from
2.01 to 2.02.

One of ideas could be to try building make with not patched 201.
If this triggers this bug then perhaps You patched libc somewere more
than I did. I also used gcc-2.8.1 both when building under DOS and
when crossbuilding under Linux. 

One more idea would be to upload make archives for DJGPP to v2/alphas.
I don't see anything bad from releasing alpha version of port. Then
I would be able to test also Your build.
