          double quote enclosing the commandline (the -c argument).
        o Fixed a newline escape problem when using batch_mode_shell on windows with kmk_ash.

        o Made up my mind about the command depency blocker variables;
          NO_LINK_CMDS_DEPS and NO_COMPILE_CMDS_DEPS.
    - src/gmake:
        o Added kmk_gmake which is (almost) vanilla GNU Make.

    - src/gmake/kmkbuiltin/rm.c:
        o OS/2 wants -R.
    - src/gmake/read.c:
        o Don't call glob() unless there is a wildcard pattern in the name.
