Thank you Gil
You have confirmed what I suspected since I've seen the code.  The developer 
has introduced a non-standard code that is compatible only with GNU make.  I 
have already complained about the issue as introduction of non-standard code 
would definitely hamper any port to a non 'make' environment.

What I will probably do is, in my port scripts (I have a whole system to 
automate the port, resolve dependencies, etc.), I will add some logic to 
replace these values with known external values (from a config file), or spit 
an error message when a new, yet unseed such value is introduced.  Basically, 
mimic the 'make' action in that regard.
