There is a (harmless) bug in the Makefile. Quoting from the patch:

[...]
+ @echo -n \#define UTS_VERSION \"\#`cat .version` > .ver
+ @if [ -z "$(SMP)" ] ; then echo -n " SMP" >> .ver; fi <<<<BUG
+ @if [ -f .name ]; then echo -n \-`cat .name` >> .ver; fi
[...]

Obviously the marked line should read:

+ @if [ -n "$(SMP)" ] ; then echo -n " SMP" >> .ver; fi
^
instead of: |
v
+ @if [ -z "$(SMP)" ] ; then echo -n " SMP" >> .ver; fi
