This happens on Ubuntu 14.10, too.

( http://bradb.net/building-firefox-os-for-the-flatfish-tablet-from-ubuntu/ has some steps to work around this on Ubuntu 14.10, FWIW.)
There is an apparently abandoned patch here with commentary that suggests make 4.0 works if you remove the check: https://gerrit.paranoidandroid.co/#/c/108/ I have no clue as to why this was abandoned though.
