This has a nasty side effect...  the GNU make I've got can't find gcc
when I set my UNIXMODE to _anything_.  I guess it's looking for gcc with
an execute bit, instead of gcc.ttp (since my GNUstuff all lives on a
TOS partition, mostly due to the fact that G++ and 4M of RAM don't mix
very well...).

Does the non-MiNT gmake on atari.archive work well with MiNT and TOS?
I'd prefer not to have UNIXMODE set under MiNT, but to still be able
to use long mixed-case filenames on my minix partitions.
