[root at admin ~/Exim/exim-4.85_RC2]# make clean

*** "make clean" just removes all .o and .a files
*** Use "make makefile" to force a rebuild of the makefile

cd build-${build:-`/bin/sh scripts/os-type`-`/bin/sh scripts/arch-type`};
 /bin/rm -f *.o lookups/*.o lookups/*.a auths/*.o auths/*.a  routers/*.
o routers/*.a transports/*.o transports/*.a  pdkim/*.o pdkim/*.a

[root at admin ~/Exim/exim-4.85_RC2]# gmake
/bin/sh scripts/source_checks
`Makefile' is up to date.

gmake[1]: Entering directory '/root/Exim/exim-4.85_RC2/build-FreeBSD-i386'
Makefile:44: *** missing separator.  Stop.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/root/Exim/exim-4.85_RC2/build-FreeBSD-i386'
Makefile:29: recipe for target 'all' failed
gmake: *** [all] Error 2


So that is NOT helping still..
