Ah, I see the problem!  The Makefile in .../pgtclsh has

Makefile.tcldefs:/bin/sh mkMakefile.tcldefs.sh

which is OK for building Makefile.tcldefs initially ... but it needs
a dependency so that Makefile.tcldefs will be rebuilt if
mkMakefile.tcldefs.sh has changed.

I think there is also a syntax error at the inclusion point ---
tabs before an include directive are a NO-NO.

Will fix, and check the other tcl makefiles for the same problem.

Like I said, this is *not* necessary since we are assuming GNU Make.
Make already knows about (re)building included files as required;
see "How Makefiles Are Remade" in the GNU Make manual.
The problem is we're not giving it correct dependency info.
