Well, I'm not Peter, but I've had more than my share of run-ins with MPLAB's
Make utility and PICC.  First set your include path to:

C:\HT-PIC\INCLUDE (Assuming that's where your compiler is.  The new compiler
moved.)

If you have files in directories other than the directory that you're compiling
from and the directory with the compiler include files, you're blazing a new
trail.

I've also noticed that the new PIC18F parts have files with long file names and
MPLAB only handles the 8.3 format.  If you don't plan on changing PICC include
files, you can place dummy files with truncated names (truly truncated, not with
~1) in the include path.

There is no make file.  All the make information is contained in the project
(.pjt) file.  If you look at the file with a text editor, you should be able to
get a good idea of the way things work.
