We used Polytron's PolyMake to put together some large C programs, the
largest of which is about 500K of object code.  It is a good reimplementation
of the Unix make and has no particular bugs that I've noticed.

If you get Microsoft's assembler version 3.x or 4.0, they throw in a version
of make which is less powerful but looks useful.
