Jean,

What appears to be happening is that make does not recognize the spaces after
the colon (:) or on the following recipe lines.  If you will replace them with
tabs, this should fix the problem.  I've encountered this issue on other
versions of make before.  Another solution is to modify the make source code
to recognize a space as a legal separator.
