It seems that you using a GNU bash command line, not running make from
windows command line.
a bash-s mkdir treats backslashes differently that's why :
 mkdir .\obj\vm
> mkdir: cannot create directory `.objvm': File exists

If you going to run make from bash command line, i would recommend you
to use makefile.mingw32 , where i fixed all backslashes to straight
ones.
But mingw using different GCC version, which producing VM which is
about 30% slower comparing to VM built with GCC 2.95.
