I inserted a

echo "MAKE=${MAKE}"

into the Makefile.  What you saw in my previous post was

MAKE=  BUILDLINK_PREFIX.gettext=/usr/pkg [other VAR=somethings]
   ^^^^^^^

This is where it should say

MAKE=bmake BUILDLINK_PREFIX.gettext=/usr/pkg [other VAR=somethings]

or

MAKE=/usr/pkg/bin/gmake BUILDLINK_PREFIX.gettext=/usr/pkg [other VAR=somethings]


The problem with that particular package (mail/mutt) could be avoided
since it did not actually require GMAKE, as it turned out.  Without
using gmake, the package built fine.
