In sys_reqs.rst there is also a reference to make in the "Required Tools
and Libraries". Change: 

"General development tools including make, and a supported C compiler such
as gcc (version 4.9+) or clang (version 3.4+)."

To something like:

"General development tools including a supported C compiler such
as gcc (version 4.9+) or clang (version 3.4+)."
