hm. were from it got that "id.c" at all? isn't there old
"idgen.exe" lying somewhere in your %PATH%? win32.mak runs just
"idgen", so sometimes when something is gone haywire it may call
"idgen.exe" from some other place.

i don't know why it uses simple "idgen" instead of ".\\idgen.exe". you
can try to fix that like in make (it's around "id.h id.c : idgen.c"
rule) and see if that changes anything.
