[U-Boot] [compile error] No rule to make target '.depend', needed by libul2410.a

Hi all, I want to used u-boot for my linux port.
Accroding from content of file README in u-boot-1.3.4 package, I have did follows: 1, vi Makefile, add one new entry for my ul2410 board; 2, create a directory (board/ul2410) by: cp -rf ./board/smdk2410 ./board/ul2410 cd ./board/ul2410 mv ./smdk2410.c ./ul2410.c 3, and create a new config file by: cp include/boards/smdk2410.h include/boards/ul2410.h
Finally, I config it:
$make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-9tdmi-linux-gnu- ul2410_config Configuring for ul2410 board... $
and than compile it:
$make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-9tdmi-linux-gnu-
make does his work correctly unti error present as follow:
... make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/yihect/.../u-boot-1.3.4/post' make -C board/ul2410/ make[1]:Entering direcotory '/home/.../board/ul2410' make[1]:*** No rule to make target '.depend', needed by 'libul2410.a'. Stop. make[1]:Leaving directory..... make: *** .... Error 2 $
After catting the Makefile in /board/ul2410 dir, it seems that the $(obj) is expanded to some blank space. That's why?
I'm still a newbie to makefile, so can anybody help me? Any suggestion is appericated too. Thanks.

No. for nowmal builds this is OK. Try an out-of-tree build (like running "make O=/tmp/foo ...", and you will see the difference.
