Fix from Eli for incorrect value of $(MAKE) on Cygwin.

A few changes from char* to void* where appropriate, and removing of
unnecessary casts.

Much more work on const-ifying the codebase.  This round involves some code
changes to make it correct.  NOTE!!  There will almost certainly be problems
on the non-POSIX ports that will need to be addressed after the const changes
are finished: they will need to be const-ified properly and there may need to
be some changes to allocate memory, etc. as well.

The next (last?) big push for this, still to come, is const-ifying the
filenames in struct file, struct dep, etc.  This will allow us to store file
names in the string cache and finally resolve Savannah bug #15182 (make uses
too much memory), among other advantages.

+	* strcache.c (strcache_add_len): Don't allocate a new buffer
+	unless the string is not already nil-terminated.  Technically this
+	is a violation of the standard, since we may be passed an array
+	that is not long enough to test one past.  However, in make this
+	is never true since we only use nil-terminated strings.
+
+	* read.c (eval, do_define): Use cmd_prefix instead of '\t'.
+
+	* main.c: New global cmd_prefix, defaults to '\t'.
+	* job.c (construct_command_argv_internal): Use cmd_prefix instead
+	of '\t'.
+
+	* dir.c: Constified.
+	(dir_contents_file_exists_p): Check for an error return	from
+	readdir(), just in case.
+
+	* commands.c: Constified.
+	* default.c: Constified.
+	* expand.c: Constified.
+	* function.c: Partial constification.
+	* variable.c: Partial constification.
+	* vmsify.c: Constification.  Hard to test this but I hope I didn't
+	screw it up!
+	* vpath.c: Partial constification.

+	* main.c (main) [HAVE_DOS_PATHS]: Treat DOS style argv[0] with
+	backslashes and drive letters as absolute.
