Yes, this comes from Makefile.in:

LIBLIB_FUNCS = $(basename @LIBOBJS@ @ALLOCA@)

If @LIBOBJS@ and @ALLOCA@ are empty the argument is empty, too.
However, I don't think make should complain. The basename of an empty
list ist just an empty list.

I have no idea why the line number is wrong. The original author sent
me his Makefile and it's identical to mine. He uses make 3.79 while
mine is calles 3.79.1. I will try if this makes a difference later.

Bye,
