This doesn't have anything to do with GNU make.  Make just invokes
whatever command you tell it to, just as you would if you typed it from
the shell.  If the command make invokes fails, that's because the
command itself is in error somehow.

Since you didn't even provide the link command that caused this problem
I'm at a loss to give more details, except to say that it looks like it
wants to link a file called "values-Xa.o" and that file doesn't exist,
for whatever reason.
