magical.

I did an `ln -s /usr/local/bin/make /usr/local/bin/gmake` and then 
referenced gmake rather than make. For some reason, that got over the 
hump. I have no clue why calling make would initially work and later in 
the process revert to /usr/ccs/bin/make, but calling the same code via 
the symlink name gmake works.

Anyway, now I'm in the normal build debugging mode. Got all the way 
through to building the Documentation, at which stage I now need to get 
asciidoc and python. I don't really like bloating my minimal server 
systems with python, but it seems I'm finally stuck, since I have 
faculty who really want to use git.

Thanks for the clue.
