Description of problem:

I am using Redhat kernel sources Version-2.4.18-14. I am not able to create a
kernel rpm using make rpm command in RedHat-8.0. reporting rpm -ta is an unknown
option. Cd to linux and execute a command as follows

#make rpm
...............................
...............................
kernel-2.4.1814custom/./scripts/tkgen.c
kernel-2.4.1814custom/./scripts/tkparse.c
kernel-2.4.1814custom/./scripts/tkparse.h
kernel-2.4.1814custom/./scripts/ver_linux
kernel-2.4.1814custom/./kernel.spec
-ta: unknown option
make: *** [rpm] Error 1

The make file is working perfactly if rpm replaced with rpmbuild.

Could you please resolve this.

Regards
Ravi

Doesn't sound like a bug in make itself...
