Any command line option given to make must either be a variable
assignment (in the form <var>=<value>) or a target to build, such as
"foo".
When you say "make USA", make is going to look for a target "USA".
Since you didn't define such a target, you get the above error.
One option is to use target-specific variables, like this:
USA: REG_DEFINE=-DREG_UNITED_STATES
Mexico: REG_DEFINE=-DREG_MEXICO
USA Mexico: $(OUT_FILE)
.PHONY: USA Mexico
Read about target-specific variables in the GNU make manual.
BTW, your makefile confuses me a lot. You seem to have about 6
different definitions for the "load" and "clean" targets. There can be
only one single-colon recipe for a given target. Don't you get lots of
warnings from make about this? Or, did you leave out some parts of your
makefile environment?
