But it clutters my make output. I like my make output to be as clean as 
possible. Actually I would like to get rid of the "Building CXX 
object..." messages as well -- when running make with the -s option 
there should be no output at all except error messages. But that is 
another issue.

Anyway, the culprit is that I ran make like this

$ make -j2 all VERBOSE=

i.e. the VERBOSE variable is set, but to the empty string.
