The reason you get this error is that target-specific variables don't support the "export" keyword; see the GNU make manual. Only "override" keywords are supported. I'm retargeting this bug as an enhancement.

The error comes because as the assignment isn't considered a target-specific variable, make sees the second ":" in the ":=" token and assumes you are trying to define a static pattern rule, and your syntax is invalid for that.

I've implemented this enhancement for the next release.
