Well, the patch is slightly more broken than the original Makefile...
That should really be:

diff -U2 -r linux.orig/Makefile linux/Makefile
--- linux.orig/Makefile Sun Mar 19 10:16:36 2000
+++ linux/Makefile Thu Mar 23 07:02:48 2000

 OBJCOPY = $(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy
 OBJDUMP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)objdump
-MAKE = make
 MAKEFILES = $(TOPDIR)/.config
 GENKSYMS = /sbin/genksyms

as GNU make sets MAKE itself.
