[Dovecot] Error "make install" of dovecot 1.0b3

I just downloaded dovecot 1.0b3 and running "make install" gives me an error
This seems like a fairly simple bug in the Makefile ... but I'm not sure if maybe its a symptom of something more complex.
I've tried "make uninstall" , "make install" and removing the entire /usr/local/lib/dovecot tree and same thing.
dovecot does run ... but for other reasons I'm having problems getting it to work so thinking maybe this error could explain things

System: Linux 

[root at lee dovecot-1.0.beta3]# uname -a
Linux lee.calldei.com 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 #1 Tue May 17 20:27:37 EDT 2005 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

CPU: x86
Filesystem: standard linux fs.

FYI: the "other problem" is I had to modify main.c to listen on alternate ports because I cant shut down my current UofW IMAP server to test this one ...
