AFAIK ‘$<’ is standard make, and it’s used in other places in the file.
So there must be a subtle syntax variation that BSD make doesn’t
understand here.

wgl: Could you edit libguile/Makefile.in, remove the 6 comment lines
starting with “## We want to install”, and then try again ‘make
install’?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
