I'll hazard a guess.

It seems likely you are using IRIX 'make' and that's not
going to work: there are various small dependencies on
using 'gnu make' in many software packages on the net.
Including gdb.

Instead install gnu make (you could call it 'gmake' 
on your machine)
(from http://freeware.sgi.com, for example) 

and do
        gmake
