You must have a gnustep-make installation in which gnustep-gui had  
been built/installed and where gnustep-gui was subsequently deleted  
manually rather than being uninstalled.  So the makefile fragment for  
gnustep-gui is still in the make installation.

Removing the old makefile fragment ($GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES/Additional/ 
gui.make) will probably fix it.
