Just add a rule for $(BIN)/$(PGM).bat to gis.m/Makefile, e.g.:

$(BIN)/$(PGM).bat: $(PGM).bat
	$(INSTALL_DATA) $< $@

If you have multiple rules for the same target, the dependencies are
merged (which, in this case, is harmless), and the commands from the
last rule are used, so a rule in the Makefile will override the
generic one in the *.make file.
