od -ah Src/Makefile config.status Src/Makemod.in | grep -i cr

show nothing for those files (of course I don't have Makemod, just
Makemod.in and that's what make complains about). That's on unix.

I double checked with a DOS file, and it did show the CR's.

I have 

c:\cygwin           /                   system       binmode

and I just changed 
export TMP=/tmp
export TEMP=/tmp
(nothing mounted on /tmp, it's just a dir under /).

That didn't help.

I'll try to play with this myself a bit. I'll post if I can't find out
anything useful.
