Two things:

    1. You didn't read the instructions. It said:
            "Don't forget to do a ``make depend''"
       which you didn't do.

    2. You're using GNU make instead of BSD make. It's a Bad Idea 
       to install gmake as `make'. You should have used the ports
       to install it. It'd have gone in as `gmake'
