This is not valid shell syntax.  See the documentation for the shell.

???  This is some strange Borg-ian combination of shell and make syntax.

Please be clear that you cannot "mix and match" shell syntax and make
syntax like this.  Make syntax is parsed by make.  Shell syntax is
passed to, and parsed by, the shell.

It's really not clear to me what you're trying to do...
