>Fix:

There is a garbage character in the Makefile. The character is "^".
Here is an excerpt from revision $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.21 2000/01/02 
17:48:54 tron Exp $ of the Makefile:

MASTER_SITES=   ftp://ftp.clark.net/pub/dickey/vile/ \
^               ftp://ftp.uni-trier.de/pub/unix/editor/vile/ \
                ftp://ftp.phred.org/pub/vile/

It is the "^" below the 'M' from MASTER_SITES that is causing the problem.
This character should be removed.
