First, please try
  gmake --no-print-directory

which should work.  Then, please make the amhello example dirty again:
  rm doc/amhello-1.0.tar.gz 

and try plain
  make

which should work unless you use Solaris 2.6 make and also attempt a
VPATH build.  Then, again
  rm doc/amhello-1.0.tar.gz

then apply the patch below, then build with plain
  gmake

which should now finally work, too.

Thanks,
Ralf

        * doc/Makefile.am: Use $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) for building
        amhello, to prevent gmake from invoking make with MAKEFLAGS
        it does not understand.
