Hi,
Yeah, we kind of broke it on purpose because of a bug in binutils with relocation data. Nobody has created an easy solution yet, however using Reactos's CMD.EXE in win98 will work and should bypass this problem..
The windows 98 problem has nothing to do with a bug in binutils. Make.exe uses cmd to process all pipe commands on windows, but windows 98 doesn't have a cmd program. You should copy command.com to cmd.com or cmd.exe.

Hi,
Our old makefile would split the creation of each object and then build all the objects together. However, because of binutils' retardedness, it is unable to generate proper relocation data unless the image is built from a single object. So Filip made this change, but this breaks win9x since the command-line (which now includes all the objects) is too large.
Notice the error message "Too many parameters"
