Color me clueless as to what's going on.  However, since the offending
line is conditional on !KBUILD_SRC, you can try
     mkdir obj ; make ARCH=um O=obj
and see if the behavior changes.  Maybe it'll produce a different and
more informative error.

I suspect you'll get exactly the same error because make is failing to
parse the Makefile and hasn't got around to actually interpretting
it.  If so, then just delete that line and see what happens.
