Works fine here against an empty object tree:

http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/build/file.php?lid=9591

Are you building into an already-built object tree or rebuilding an
already built tree?

This is likely caused by make getting confused over the dependencies.
I suggest making clean to recover from this error.
