The problem comes from a statement that is generated if you define
HAVE_XPM and looks something like this.

XPM_DEFINES = ...			/* Initial decl. */
	.
	.
	.
XPM_DEFINES = $(XPM_DEFINES) ...	/* Post-initial decl. */

The problem is caused by the second statement which is detected
as an infinite loop, no so strange :-). A temporary way to fix it 
is to put them on the same line. The author can fix it in a later
release.

Previous it looked something like this;

XPM_DEFINES = ...
	.
	.
	.
XPM_DEFINES += ...

which is legal for gnumake (I think) but other doesn't recognize it.
