Hmm,I see the following in my environment.

bash-2.02$ ls
CVS          Makefile     pg_passwd.c  pg_passwd.o
bash-2.02$ make pg_passwd
gcc -o pg_passwd
pg_passwd.o -lcrypt -lm -lreadline -ltermcap -lncurses -lcygipc
 -g
bash-2.02$ ls
CVS            Makefile       pg_passwd.c    pg_passwd.exe  pg_passwd.o
bash-2.02$ make pg_passwd
make: `pg_passwd' is up to date.
