I get the exact same results when I run those commands.

Perhaps I had an error in my Makefile. Can you please try the following 
Makefile that still generates the same error for me?

---------------------
TMP=tmpnam
PROGRAM=program

cc = g++ -v
CFLAGS = -ggdb
LDFLAGS=-lm

ALL= $(TMP) $(PROGRAM)

all: $(ALL)

---------------------

Right. I guess I was just curious why I was having this collision.

Thanks again.
