This is a makefile, not a shell script.  Backquotes (``) don't do
anything special in a makefile (in most places).

  cm> $(MyTargets):

This simply creates a target with the literal name "`genTargetList`"

You need to use something like:

    MyTargets := $(shell genTargetList)

Note this is GNU make only, and not portable to other versions of make.
