the build tree creates wrappers in the tests/ subdir and then defs
adds that to the beginning of PATH.
But it does not matter here, since:

It means that "make -w" behaves strange on your platform. (Try
replacing "make -w" with "make" at the top of the script; then the
answer will be "GNU", right?)
You should report it to the vendor of your platform (NixOS).
OTOH, AFAIK, make -w is not used much, so it is quite probable that
this problem does not affect you in practical life at all.
Have a nice day,
