In fact we know that Jonah won't build using MKS V5.n - you need version 6.
Mike's right in that each make is different, and this is likely to mean
that you can't just replace the MKS toolkit with some other set of
Unix-like tools.  However, everything that's specific to a given flavor of
make is isolated in two files (rules.mk and src\startup.mk), so it should
be possible to use a different one by suitably modifying one or both of
these files.  If you do try this, let us know what you had to change to get
it to work!
