Because you're trying to double-expand it. $(expr) substitutes the value
of expr, which is a Python expression (or a variable reference, which is
just a special case of Python expression). You wouldn't try to reference
a variable as $($(FOO)) either. Furthermore, the $(HEADER_ROOT) uses are
inside quotes, so it's a string _literal_.

What you want to do is this:

  $(fileList([HEADER_ROOT"+/gale/math/*.h",HEADER_ROOT+"/*.inl"]))
