This looks to be failing at the depend step. The last time I got error 127 it
was because I hadn't got makedepend installed, so a good first step might be
to make sure all your tools are installed. The iso of Linux PPC 2000 I got
didn't install many things at all.
Do an rpm -q -a and check you've at least got
XFree86-devel (required for makedepend (probably))
gcc
(I'm assuming you've already got make :-)
If that doesn't work, cd to debugger and do make -n
This will print out a list of what make wants to do.
Try running the commands one by one, which should at least help pin point where
the error is happening.

As mentioned by Eric Marston,

makedepend might be failing becuase it can't find some headers, so it might be
an idea downloading some new source.
