Dependency line needs colon or double colon?

[Joseph Mah]

Hello,

I am trying to compile gcc and am using gnu Make 3.8.0:

make CFGLAGS='-O' LIBCFLAGS='-g -O2'
\LIBCXXFLAGS='-g -O2 -fno-implicit-templates' bootstrap

in AIX 4.3.3

I am getting a series of errors as follows.  I've checked through the
Makefile itself but I don't understand what is wrong.  Is there a certain
format or set of spaces, tabs required?
