Comment (by kencu):

 Looks like what is happening is that the configure script is calling
 `make` to generate the dependency tracking information now -- this appears
 to have re-enabled in some recent update to autotools.

 And when the configure script on Tiger calls make, it finds the old one in
 `/usr/bin/make` rather than the new one in `/opt/local/bin/gmake`
 (obviously), and the old `make` barfs on the newer command syntax.

 One way to fix this is to set up some configure & build env vars to point
 MAKE to the new gmake -- ugh - in every port -ugh.

 OR -- if I just make a symlink from /opt/local/bin/gmake to
 /opt/local/bin/make then everything works without touching any portfiles.

 This is getting to be too much work -- one symlink vs. tweaking hundreds
 of ports. I'm going to see if I can sell adding a symlink from gmake to
 make on Tiger by default, and save us all 1000 hours.
