make 3.81 in GnuWin gets confused in Git Bash terminals such as msysGit. If
a Makefile refers to a .sh Shell script, make fails, unless the programmer
appends a semicolon (;) after the shell script call in the Makefile.

Could the next version of GnuWin make automatically append a semicolon
before command line calls are issued? This would greatly increase
compatibility with the thousands of Makefiles out there.
