make: Nothing to be done for 'ALWAYS'

[heinzstoic]

I recently installed Cygwin on my Windows XP.
when i try to use 'make' to produce executable programs,
$ make
it displays the following error message:
make: Nothing to be done 'ALWAYS'.
I donnot know how to fix this error. Can anyone help me?
my working directory is /home/administrator/code,
there are two makefiles in this directory, one is Makefile, the other is _Makefile, and the content of Makefile as following:

It sounds like the make file is not gmake compatible. From the directory information it seems likely that it was designed for NMAKE and there are definitely incompatibilities between nmake and gmake (Cygwin make == gmake).
