    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The attached Makefile causes a segmentation fault in make 3.80. The problem
seems to be when the variable JPEGS is referenced. gdb reports the problem is
a call to memmove(). If the parentheses are removed there is no problem.

Compiled with GCC 4.0.3, Arch Linux. Reproduced with distro's version and my
own compile from source.
