See GNU Savannah bug 30612 -- make 3.82 is known to be broken.
A number of vendors are providing a modified version, so checking
for just the version string is not enough. We also need to check
if the patch for the issue has been applied. We use a modified
version of the reproduced to check for the issue.

Verified that this detects the 3.82 in Debian's experimental
repository that is well and truly broken.

This picks out the current version of make in Arch Linux as broken
despite it having a patch for bug #30612. I'm not sure if this is
intended, could be that the applied patch isn't a complete fix. I
don't have time to dig into this, just thought it'd be useful to you
to know.
This is exactly why the check is being done. From what I found there are a
number of make versions on various distros that only have partial fixes for bug
30612.
For the RedHat/Fedora bug I filed, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975597
The test case, and a patch to the missing commit are listed.
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=b06b8c64a29a5ba3a8daecd829fa2f98d42cb285
If you know what fix you're looking for, the applied patches and build
script can be seen at
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/make
Looking at that list, it appears the commit referenced above is indeed the one
missing.
