Hmm, I can't reproduce the problem. Lets try a few things so that we
can pinpoint the problem.

Create a dummy Makefile with the following contents:
----8<----
install:
 install -d /usr/local/include
--->8-----

Note that there is a tab before the install command, no spaces.

And now try to reproduce the problem.

Also, execute the following command (as root, otherwise you will have problems)

strace -o install.strace install -d /usr/local/include

And post the install.strace file.
