Environment:

autoconf-2.13
automake-1.4
make-3.78.1
m4-1.4n

Irix cc-7.2.1  (cfe is the front-end part of this)
 since require o32 libs for compatibility with PERL5.00503 that is also 
so-built for talking to Oracle-7.3.3.4.  The freetds is for the libs to be 
able to add in DBD::freetds or DBD::Sybase to read the MSSQL on a farm of 
NT boxes in another aspect of the company, but the SGI Origin200 is the 
central point for logs analysis so it has to reside here unless the 
difficulty of making the connection to MSSQL proves insurmountable.  Then 
the stats team will probably dump the idea they currently have rather than 
convert all the analysis codes and tools to another architecture (We run 
several: Solaris2.6,2.7,8 Irix6.2,6.4,6.5.4 FreeBSD4.0 Linux2.2.17pre so 
the existence of alternate platforms is not a problem, but the conversion 
would be.)

Behavior:

configure happily finds everything

The make breaks early in inside src/tds after calling libtool for mem.c
Then inside the .libs, this occurs

cc -DPACKAGE=\"freetds\" -DVERSION=\"0.50\" -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 
-DHAVE_SYS_WAIT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DWORDS_BIGENDIAN=1 -DHAVE_STRFTIME=1 
-DHAVE_SOCKET=1 -I. -I. -I../../include -32 -DHW_BIG_ENDIAN -DTDS50 
-Wp,-MD,.deps/mem.pp -c -DPIC mem.c -o mem.lo
cfe: Error: extraneous input/output file name 0
cfe: Fatal: Cannot open the file .deps/mem.pp

then of course the ensuing errors
make[2]: ***[mem.lo] Error 1      ...and so on.

Any ideas what is preventing the existence of .deps/mem.pp?
