Use parenthesis when evaluating variables, not curly-braces:
    LIBGC_SOURCE = gc-$(LIBGC_VERSION).tar.gz

> +LIBGC_SITE = http://www.hboehm.info/gc/gc_source/
> +LIBGC_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS = libatomic_ops-${LIBGC_VERSION}.tar.gz

Ditto, parenthesis.

This is not needed.

I know this is how upstream suggests building, but I can refrain from
finding this really ugly... Yuck! :-(

Anyway: can't use you use something like:

    LIBGC_LIBATOMIC_OPS = libatomic_ops-${LIBGC_VERSION}.tar.gz
    LIBGC_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS = $(LIBGC_LIBATOMIC_OPS)

    define LIBGC_POST_EXTRACT_INC_LIBATOMIC
        $(INSTALL) -d -m 0755 $(LSOF_DIR)/libatomic_ops && \
        $(call suitable-extractor,$(LIBGC_LIBATOMIC_OPS)) $(DL_DIR)/$(LIBGC_LIBATOMIC_OPS) |\
            $(TAR) $(TAR_STRIP_COMPONENTS)=1 -C $(LSOF_DIR)/libatomic_opsi $(TAR_OPTIONS) -
    endef
    LIBGC_POST_EXTRACT_HOOKS += LIBGC_POST_EXTRACT_INC_LIBATOMIC

Note LIBGC_LIBATOMIC_OPS is not strictly required, but I find it cleaner
to use, rather than call suitabel-extract on _EXTRA_DOWNLOADS, which is
a plual and could contain more than one file. That's purely for
aesthetics.
