Why are you doing this? What is your goal?
There might be better ways to achieve your goal than using the << operator.
It is better if you tell us what your goal is, so we can advise the
best way to achieve it.
Otherwise we have to guess what your goal is because you did not state it.
This is called an XY Question. Please read the top couple of paragraphs here:

You are asking about Y, and not telling us what X is.
If (I guess that) you are trying to output multiline text from your makefile
then you might find an answer here:
