In cdrtools version 2.01.01a46_0,  it does not build and install mkisofs,
cdda2wav and various other programs. It does build and install
cdrecord

I do not know whether it is related to this error message:

are caused by a GNU make bug and not by the Schily makefile system.

The related bug has been reported to the GNU make maintainers in 1998 but
as the bug has not yet been fixed, it seems that GNU make is 
unmaintained :-(
A working highly portable make program is at ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/smake

Perhaps we should be using smake.
