This is for building the DOS port of Make.  Is that what you wanted?
If so, you lack some basic packages to be able to compile the DOS
version.

If, on the other hand, you wanted to build the MS-Windows version,
please read the file README.W32 instead.

Finally, you might be much better off downloading and installing the
pre-compiled binaries of the Windows port of Make:

  
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Extension/make/make-3.82.90-cvs-20120823/

(If you want the DOS binaries, get
ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/mak3791b.zip instead.)

You don't have the djdev203.zip package that is required for building
DJGPP (a.k.a. DOS) ports of GNU software.

You probably don't have the GCC compiler installed, either.

What do you need Make for, to begin with?  What will you want to do
with it?
