I think there is a terminology issue here.  The FPGA image is built by
ISE.  The firmware is built by gcc.  I assume you mean the FPGA image.

This is where you are going wrong.  UHD is not a part of GNU Radio 3.3.1.

If you want to use UHD, you need the GNU Radio next branch.  In that
case you must use ISE 12.1.

Go into the u2_rev3 directory and type "make bin"
