In bash at least using double-quotes results in the evaluation of symbols, whereas single-quotes doesn't. I suspect it's the same for make. I can change it if you like though.

I think that you want the variables outside the "".
At least here the echo command ignores the quotes. Try this: export ARCH=i686 then echo my arch is $ARCH echo "my arch is $ARCH" echo "my arch" is $ARCH all yeald the same result: my arch is i686
