The Makefile had the following added:

CC=/tuna_a/gnu/bin/gcc
CFLAGS=-O -traditional -fstrength-reduce

and all of the cc's were replaced with ${CC}.  It bombed with

/tuna_a/gnu/bin/gcc -O -traditional -fstrength-reduce -DCHESSTOOL -O -c gnuchess
.c
/tuna_a/gnu/bin/gcc: Program cc1 got fatal signal 6.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

Taking out -fstrength-reduce stops the core dumping.
