You seem to have tickled a real bug here. As the error states, make 
found 8 spaces instead of a tab character at line 1392.

This code was updated a long time ago:

summary:     6799141: Build with --hash-style=both so that binaries can 
work on SuSE 10

It is very odd that noone has encountered this.

You can fix it by editing the file and replacing the 8 spaces with a TAB.
