That's probably harmless.

I believe this could be fixed by using gmake.

I have fixed some bugs in the Makefile.in files.  There is a new
version labeled gopher-20020109-01.cvs.tar.gz available at the
download site.  I think this should fix your bug.  Let me know if it
does, and if so, I'll prepare a 3.0.1 with that fix and the NetBSD
patches.
