We can't really help.  However, we can tell you what this error means:
it means that your top-level make utility is an older version of make.
I can't see from the above exactly what make is being invoked; I have
no idea what "/auto/binos-tools/makej/make_wrapper-lnx" is or what make
it actually invokes underneath.

In any event, that top-level make is older but when it runs a sub-make
instead of invoking itself (as it would if it were using the standard
$(MAKE) variable for example), it's running this make:
/router/bin/make-4.2.1-p0 and that version is a newer version of make.

That doesn't work due to some internal parameter changes.
