recursive make and lost stdout

- Subject: recursive make and lost stdout
In the following example:
\test>ls -R
.:
makefile test1
./test1:
makefile
C:\test>cat makefile
test:
echo "Hello from test"
$(MAKE) -C test1
C:\test>cat test1\makefile
test:
echo "Hello from test1"
C:\test>make --unix
echo "Hello from test"
make -C test1
The echo from the sub-makefile in test1 is lost, this used to work about 6
months ago, what am I doing wrong.
Note: I am running make from a winXP command line not bash.
running from bash I get
bash-2.05a$ make --unix -s
Hello from test
Hello from test1
or
bash-2.05a$ make --unix
echo "Hello from test"
Hello from test
/bin/make -C test1
make[1]: Entering directory `/test/test1'
echo "Hello from test1"
Hello from test1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/test/test1'
This works for this simple file but is unreliable from a much more complex
version.
Thank in advance.
