So I could just lift that out of glibc 2.27 and drop it into the make

You could try, but I'm not optimistic that it will just work.
"just work" ? nope. not even close.
I think the way forward is to get the latest code from GNU make's Git
repository and see if that works:
https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=make
Well sure ... however before I get there I am still baffled why this
current release code won't work on an old 32-bit intel debian server?
I just compiled kernel 4.15.15 on that machine and am running it now.
Certainly if I can compile and run a new kernel on the same machine I
would think I can compile GNU make from sources? Or am I stretching
here?

Be sure to read the README.git file for information on building from
Git, rather than from a source distribution (it requires extra packages
to be installed, such as autotools).
yep .. autoreconf and its brethern however I suspect something else is
going on here.
