That's because your Makefile is wrong.  See below.

This backslash is actually the cause of your trouble.  It makes the
command be part of the dependencies.  Remove the backslash, and the
problem should go away.

Btw, Make 3.75 is very old.  I suggest to download and install the
latest version 3.77, as it fixes a few bugs, some of them important
for DJGPP users.
