New description:
Although I noticed this issue on HP-UX, I know it affects Solaris too. The
'make' program certainly can not be Sun's on Solaris, and while it looks
like a minor mod would allow the 'make' on HP-UX to work, it seems
sensible we just check for GNU make.
It would appear that there is an autoconf macros for this, now called
AX_CHECK_GNU_MAKE, though it was called CHECK_GNU_MAKE()

There's a bit of information about this at
