This is wrong.  It should have been "with ../base/synthesis.hdlist.cz".

However, if that doesn't work, use "with ../base/hdlist.cz" instead.  I
never, personally, use the synthesis list.

This is because "with synthesis.hdlist.cz" is incorrect.  It's relative
to the RPMS directory and this implies the synthesis list is in the
RPMS/ directory itself; it isn't.  It's in updates/9.0/base, thus using
"../base/synthesis.hdlist.cz"
