I picked up the word TMPDIR by sheer bad luck, if I 
choose anything else like

# contents of makefile
ATMPDIR = tmp

test:
	chmod u+x script.sh; ./script.sh
# end of contents

there is no issue.

(here $(ATMPDIR) is never used, but it was needed in the big Makefile)

Obviously there is something important with TMPDIR and I did not have
the right to use it.

I am sorry about the fuss.

Best regards
