This feature is apparently supported as far back as make 3.75.

Just for the record, the info documentation distributed with
Cygwin B20.1 is for 'make' version 3.75 Beta and it does mention
define/endef.

You can search for those terms from within info or simply enter
"info make sequences" at the bash prompt.
