Having fixed a similar bug in a NTP-local NTP_VPATH_HACK macro, the
following snippet jumped out at me in a configure script from
ntp-4.2.5p250-RC generated with Autoconf 2.65:
case "$ac_busted_vpath_in_make$srcdir" in
no*) ;;
yes.) ;;
*) case "`${MAKE-make} -v -f /dev/null 2>/dev/null | sed -e 's/GNU
Make version \(1-9.]*\).*/\1/' -e q`" in
'')
as_fn_error "building outside of the main directory requires
GNU make" "$LINENO" 5
;;
*) ;;
esac
;;
esac
Note that GNU Make doesn't include the word "version" in -v output
anymore, apparently:
hart@psp-fb2> gmake -v

So I'd suggest removing it from the sed expression above.
