Was this on NT4 or Win2000? I tried this morning from a CMD shell
on Win2000 and it worked just fine.

I thought of another way to make this work. If Windows will allow
both the nmake and the python process to open the Makefile.nmake
file for reading, the python program could read the Makefile.nmake
file looking for the definition of DISSECTOR_SOURCES and get
the list of filenames from that. The python program could even
have rudimentary support for makefile variable expansion.
