[sr #110599] configure doesn't actually check to see if make is installed

Update of sr #110599 (project autoconf):

                  Status:                    None => Not Autoconf           
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

I don't know if anyone actually does this, but it is possible to use Autoconf
without also using Make.  AC_SUBST variables can be written into any text
file, Autoconf doesn't care what they are.  

The "automatic dependency tracking" logic that barfed comes from Automake. 
Automake _does_ require Make, and I think it would be sensible for it to do
some kind of check for Make.  Unfortunately I cannot reassign this bug to
Automake because it uses a different bug tracker.  Would you mind re-filing
this bug over there?  Instructions are at
