      Would be good to add a note to the top of both Makefile
      and makefile for which flavor of make they are
      intended,

      and maybe we can add some check to them that gives a more
      to-the-point hint if an unsuitable one is used.

       I do not have access to nmake.exe.

     Everyone who uses a VC-* configuration should have
      access to cl.exe and nmake.exe.

perl Configure VC-WIN64A

      The VC-WIN64A target generates a Makefile suitable for consumption by 
nmake. Hence its not possible to use GNU make with it.

How did you configure, and on what platform?
