My `make` complains that

but I'm having trouble figuring out which command's argument list is
too long.  I tried "make -d" but it doesn't really help:

You might consider using make --trace and remake -x.

See http://bashdb.sourceforge.net/remake/

With remake you probably would be able to understand what is happening.
