Makefile.am in question is from the gotools subdirectory of GCC:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gotools/Makefile.am;h=80b21847117fb1b685a677725826f4caba4e759e;hb=HEAD
Note that the original reporter, Jakub Jelinek, has said that this
might potentially be due to the use of an old version, so this might
not actually be a current bug after all:
