Means that in some circunstances you do 'make' inside the po directory
and it tries to reconstruct itself first, and stall if that line is
uncommented.

Inside po directory you should do:

As I'm currently working a lot with Java and even fixing Java VMs
(JamVM/Kaffe) and GNU Classpath code, I think I may partly borrow the
title (Javaman) from my friend Bruno Souza and become the
MonoNJavaMan. Yeah, I may currently be crazier than usual...
