Something is wrong with how you run configure.bat, because this part
is missing from the above transcript:

  config.settings
  gmake.defs
  ..\lib-src\makefile.w32-in
          1 file(s) copied.

It should appear between similar fragments for admin and lib
subdirectories.  I'm guessing that something went wrong when
generating lib-src/makefile, so it is butchered and doesn't work.

One thing to try is to remove the first line from configure.bat and
re-run it, perhaps you will then see what's wrong with that part.

Anyway, this works for me.
