Thanks for your interest in elftoolchain! Various components of elftoolchain originated in FreeBSD and have used BSD make from the beginning. That is, it's built using a BSD make for the same reason that much software originating in the GNU/Linux community uses GNU make. If your goal is just to build elftoolchain installing a bmake or pmake package should be straightforward.
