configure: error:
*** These critical programs are missing or too old: gcc make
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.

The INSTALL file says:-
We recommend installing the following GNU tools before attempting to
build the GNU C library:

   * GNU `make' 3.79 or newer

     You need the latest version of GNU `make'.  Modifying the GNU C
     Library to work with other `make' programs would be so difficult
