####      At or about 3:24 a.m., Manuel Hendel sez:

I believe you've just discovered the difference between
FBSD's make and the GNU make.  If you can figure out
why you are running GNU's make (which it looks like from
here) instead of FBSD's that might fix your problem.

Best of luck,

Kevin Kinsey
