Do pattern rules work in NT?

[Mark Brown]

Should the following conditional work under the NT/95 port of GNU Make as it
does under OS/2 ?

ifneq ($(GNU_OS_PORT),"NT_ENV")
       error:
             @echo Not running this Makefile on correct port!
else

endif

I have seen some makes fail silently if the dependency is greater than
one char in length (.o). I worked around this by linking the .class
to .j or something and it started working.
