I get this error when trying to wmake on Windows 7. WINDOWS is no doubt the culprit, but how to fix?!

I just pushed some updates in the 4.0 branch. Haven't rolled them to the trunk yet. In the makefile, it looks like we had WINlibobj in some places, and $(OS)libobj in others. We recently standardized on WINDOWS instead of the abbreviated WIN.

I'm not sure why we have those directories renamed. I'm sure there's a reason. Does anyone know?
