Indeed, this is unusual and should be avoided in a “normal” make
context.  However I am not sure about the effect of noise in such case:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
/bin/mkdir -p `dirname "gnu/packages/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz"`
GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH=".:$GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH" /usr/bin/guile --no-auto-compile -L "." -L "." "./build-aux/download.scm" "gnu/packages/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz" "994680f0001346864aa2c2cc5110f380ee7518dcd701c614291682b8e948f73b"
downloading file `gnu/packages/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz' from `http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guix/bootstrap/mips64el-linux/20131110/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz'...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

this can easily be overlooked as “another” compilation warning produced
by Guile.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  DL       gnu/packages/bootstrap/i686-linux/guile-2.0.9.tar.xz
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

IMO “DL” is explicit enough since the target name is a tarball and a
simple search for the target name in the Makefile gives the actual
command.  We could use the full word “DOWNLOAD” instead of “DL” but on
the other hand this will visually blend with the “LOAD” for guile
modules.
