Donn Seeley informs me that the 2.9BSD make is based on the
7th Edition make, so the answer is, that usage is not supported
by the version of make that you have.

Two alternatives:
	Use a makefile dependency generator (every so often one
	gets posted to the net);
	Get hold of a newer version of make and install it.
