In Why 2.23, it's in file frama-c-plugin/register.ml. Search for
"make". Obviously there is no support for calling "make" anything
else, but how about just changing "make" to "gmake", recompiling and
re-installing Why? (if this is for your personal use, it ought to fix
the issue for the time being. If it's for making a binary package...
Well, I assume it would still be fine, since it would be a FreeBSD
package anyway)

I only meant when you are using Frama-C.

This, or something like this, sounds like a good idea.

PS: In case you want to change more than "make" into "gmake" in the
aforementioned file, ^ is string concatenation in OCaml.
