the make file has rules to make  .lo files, but the rules actually have no active content .. apparently only listing the two empty .dirstamp files as dependencies .. there are no object files of any kind for the related .lo files, so if they existed, it wouldn't help because the object files aren't there either.   In other words, the make file simply is not creating a bunch of the necessary object and .lo files for the compile ... the compile requests them and crashes.   running ./configure doesn't help  and there is no additional ./configure for the directory with this makefile in it.     Let me know if you can help please
