Trying to install Git, I ran configure and make, but got the following error message:

make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 221: Unexpected end of line seen

The Makefile looks like:

218:    GIT-VERSION-FILE: FORCE
219:            @$(SHELL_PATH) ./GIT-VERSION-GEN
220:    -include GIT-VERSION-FILE
221:
222:    uname_S := $(shell sh -c 'uname -s 2>/dev/null øø echo not')

What's causing the error?

The following information may or may not be relevant:

I tried to install Git 1.7.0.3 on SunOS 5.9 (Solaris 9) in a directory in my account.
The gcc version is 3.4.2 (older then the version of 3.4.6 stated by sunfreeware.com).
I don't have root privileges.
