How can you validate that?   :) 

I've been building software for 30 years, 15 of them in *NIX environment.
There is not a single good (security) reason why a 'make' would ask a 
password...
That makes me wonder... 

Also, as soon as you fire 'make install', all the bets are off. 

But don't worry, the house is not on fire (yet  ;-) ), I'll download that 
software and determine what in the World this thing is doing.
