I really do need to recompile my kernel desperately. So I hope that it's merely 
something I have missed.

Needless to say, the program doesn't work.

Hi,

        The most likely cause of this is not a bug in make, but in
 missing dependencies. Please look into Documentation/Changes for a list
 of packages that need to be isntalled in order fore kernel compilation
 to work.
