 On a High Sierra 10.13.5 (17F77), I run into bug #40862:

 {{{
 :info:build .././/config/cf/vnc.def:111:23: warning: missing terminating
 '"' character [-Winvalid-pp-token]
 :info:build #define XvncRelease             \"TightVNC-1.3.10\"

 :info:build In file included from Imakefile.c:8:
 :info:build In file included from .././/config/cf/Imake.tmpl:164:
 :info:build .././/config/cf/Imake.rules:1298:27: warning: empty character
 constant [-Winvalid-pp-token]
 :info:build         for flag in ${MAKEFLAGS} ''; do \

 :info:build                                  ^
 :info:build In file included from Imakefile.c:8:

 file not found
 :info:build #include ProjectRulesFile
 :info:build          ^
 }}}

 So this is a duplicate of #40862, still present in High Sierra and 2.5.3
 -- is there a good solution?
