target `configure' doesn't match the target pattern

I get this error:

$ make -f Makefile.devel configures
Makefile.devel:81: target `configure' doesn't match the target pattern

the relevant parts of Makefile.devel:

SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE = . avcall vacall trampoline callback \
        callback/vacall_r callback/trampoline_r
CONFIGURES = $(patsubst %,%/configure,$(SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE))

configures : $(CONFIGURES)

$(CONFIGURES) : %/configure : %/configure.in $(AUTOCONF_FILES)
        cd $*; $(AUTOCONF) --include=$(CURDIR)

line 81 is the line starting with "$(CONFIGURES) : ..."

I understand that "configure" does not match "%/configure",
but "configure" is not in $(CONFIGURES),
"./configure" is - and it _should_ match "%/configure".

So, what am I doing wrong?

thanks.
