I'm trying to compile the source tarball for openvswitch version 0.90.4.  I run the configure and feed it --with-l26=/usr/src/linux.  It configures successfully, however, when I try to do a "make" I get the following: 
make  all-recursive 
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/openvswitch' 
Making all in datapath 
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/openvswitch/datapath' 
Making all in linux-2.6 
make[3]: Entering directory `/root/openvswitch/datapath/linux-2.6' 
Makefile.main:14: *** unterminated call to function `foreach': missing `)'.  Stop. 
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/openvswitch/datapath/linux-2.6' 
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/openvswitch/datapath' 
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/openvswitch' 
make: *** [all] Error 2 

I've double-checked the Makefile.main file, and the lines seem to be okay: 

$(foreach s,$(sort $(foreach m,$(build_modules),$($(m)_sources))), \ 
  $(eval $(notdir $(s)): ; ln -s $(srcdir)/../$(s) $@)) 

Any hints on why this is happening? 

Thanks, 
Nick
