Freebsd's make apparently expands it to nothing for the txt2c rule. See <20150805061645.GA15891@c720-r276659> in mutt-users. I was able to replicate the problem. The autoconf manual also mentions it's non-portable in the "Portable Make Programming" section. In any case, this fix was easy enough - let automake deal with it. :-) -- Kevin J.
