R devel - Nov 2006 - R-devel does not compile under FreeBSD-7.0 CURRENT

I am not able to compile R-devel 2006-11-28 under FreeBSD-7.0 CURRENT. 
After running ./configure script 'make' stops with the following error 
message:

--------------------------
#make
gcc -I. -I./src/include -I./src/include -I/usr/local/include
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -c  -o .m.o
gcc: No input files specified
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/local/R-devel.
#
--------------------------

I attached configure messages. If wanted I can send complete config.log 
(460 kByte).

Are their any ideas about what is going wrong? If I could help with more 
information or with testing, please let me know.

Thanks,
Rainer Hurling

As I said to you privately, I believe this to be a make issue: does GNU 
make work?  We don't guarantee R to work with other makes (although it 
usually does).

My guess is that the problem is the missing .m in the .SUFFIXES list
in Makeconf.in, but Solaris make and GNU make see no problem and it looks 
like a make bug to me.  I've added the suffix, so please try the current 
version.

(This seems to be related to adding ObjC support which is apparently 
currently incomplete.)
