I found the piece that made the trouble:

I edited the gnc-splash.c file, and then the make worked perfectly.
I'm not a programmer, and cant figure out anything else, except someone
instruct me to.

File BEFORE edit:

#ifdef GNUCASH_SVN
  ver_string = g_strdup_printf(_("Version: Gnucash-%s svn (r%d built %s)")
                , VERSION, GNUCASH_SVN_REV, GNUCASH_BUILD_DATE);
#else
  ver_string = g_strdup_printf(_("Version: Gnucash-%s"), VERSION);
#endif

File AFTER edit:

#ifdef GNUCASH_SVN
  ver_string = g_strdup_printf(_("Version: Gnucash-%s svn (r built %s)")
                , VERSION, GNUCASH_BUILD_DATE);
#else
  ver_string = g_strdup_printf(_("Version: Gnucash-%s"), VERSION);
#endif


So, I removed the: GNUCASH_SVN_REV, and the corresponding %d
