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.
