	It might be defined within the database for the make you are using...I 
ran make 3.76.1 (mingw32-gcc, ie. JJs) with the command option -p.  

	Directing the output to a file (NT 4.0) gave me a printable list of the 
internal database that is included with make 3.76.1.  There were a number 
of symbols defined...I haven't ran this under cygwin32.
