No, "all" is the default.

I wouldn't put the "build" directory inside of the "cfrontend" directory, put 
it alongside instead. That is, reverse the order of the cd and mkdir commands 
above.

If you change the location of the build directory, this will need to change too.

Is emake 100% compatible with GNU Make 3.79 or later?

"emake all" would certainly be more strongly directive but shouldn't be 
necessary. These steps look okay to me.

Try it with the build directory not inside the cfrontend directory, that will 
probably solve things for you.
