  ^^^^^^^
Do you have a tab here? I think make is putting the "one := 1" line as
part of the command script for the .PHONY target, which doesn't make
sense. Just use spaces to indent these. Also, you probably meant to
use 'ifndef one' instead of 'ifndef $(one)' - the form you're using
will be true if the value of $(one) isn't defined.
