Not seeing this.  Looking at the Makefile log, I see the dependency on
gpatch dropped with 10.x EOL -- I guess you aren't running 10.x?

And if you aren't, try to exclude possible problems by cleaning up the
patchfiles, i.e. do a `make clean; make distclean`.  If that doesn't
help, paste the full output of `make clean; make patch`.
