I looked at the link and the example.  To me, the above makefile part 
says (for ease sake, let EXEC=be)

to create liberty, it needs be, be.def, be.ro
when you have these do this to create liberty
build-prc -o be.ro be.def liberty

the above command says to me:
run build-prc and send the output to be.ro (which already exists) from 
the input files be.def and liberty (which doesn't exists and results 
in a cyclic rule)

Am I just use to a different type of make file? gnumake vs oldmake vs 
nmake?
