BSD 'make' is needed to build the sources.

Building the tree on a RedHat operating system is not supported
out-of-the box (yet)---you may therefore need to install other
pre-requisites and/or make source code changes in order to get the
tree to build.

Please see:
 * The file named "INSTALL" at the top of the source tree.
 * http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/elftoolchain/wiki/BuildingFromSource.
