for Windows, developers need to download GNU make anyway, and i don't

but for the other platforms usually only GNU make 3.82 or even 3.81 (on
Mac, iirc) is available on the system, so if we require >= 4.0 then that
means another thing that has to be installed manually, which is probably
not a good direction to go in...

Well, they only have to install it if they plan to run gbuild-to-ide,
regular builds won't care.
I'm don't think that's a common use-case, though I could be wrong.
