Description:
Building mysql 4.0.13, submake sql/, making the target lex_hash.h, the Makefile rule says "$(MAKE) gen_lex_hash". This is wrong, it should read "$(MAKE) gen_lex_hash$(EXEEXT)" (there's a rule for gen_lex_hash$(EXEEXT), but not for gen_lex_hash, so gmake will use a default rule and not have the include path set properly etc).

How to repeat:
on cygwin: untar sources, cd mysql-4.0.13; ./configure --without-extra-tools --without-bench --without-docs; cd sql; gmake

Suggested fix:
replace line 849 of sql/Makefile: "$(MAKE) gen_lex_hash"
with: "$(MAKE) gen_lex_hash$(EXEEXT)"
