It sounds like your *.Plo files have been corrupted.  If they contain any 
Windows-type file paths (e.g., c:/..., C:\..., or similar) that could be the 
problem.  Can you send the first few lines of  .deps/gr_basic_block.Plo and 
any lines that contain "c:" or "C:"?

Once you've fixed the problem that caused the *.Plo files to be bad you will 
need to rm -rf your gnuradio-3.1.1 directory and start over from the "tar 
zxf". step.
