Okay, this turned out to be useful. It appears that the contents of your file 'Makefile.config.incl' is including itself (it appears to be a copy of 'Makefile.incl'). This recurses about 1000 times, at which point you hit the file handle limit. The resulting error is apparently ignored due to the '-include'.
So, either make 'Makefile.config.incl' an empty file, or otherwise I think it should be just a short file including a few variable definitions. Also, verify that neither of these files is a symbolic or hard link to the other. Probably this will fix things, or at least move things forward.
