Isn't this more relevant? (Quoting from here on.)

Subject: [bug #18369] pattern rules don't work with spaces in filenames
Update of bug #18369 (project make):
Status: None => Duplicate
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #1:
The short answer is, GNU make doesn't handle filenames with spaces in them.
Make is really not a filename manipulator, it's a string parser. And it uses
whitespace to delimit strings in all aspects of its implementation and
behavior.
Anyway, this is a duplicate of bug #712

If those Asian characters are a filename you need to specify -f filename
when you call make if you would like to process that file.
Otherwise if you would like to process your "Makefile" Just call "make"
with no arguments.
