Either your Makefile or your make command is broken. I just tested
http://www.mindrot.org/flowd_snap/flowd-SNAP-20071002.tar.gz on
OpenBSD (which uses BSD make) and Linux (GNU make) and it compiled fine.

You Makefile should contain definitions for these items:

djm at demiurge:~/t/flowd$ grep -E '^(PROGVER|C(PP)?FLAGS)' Makefile
PROGVER=0.9
CFLAGS=-g -O2 -fPIC -D_GNU_SOURCE
CPPFLAGS=-I$(srcdir)  $(PATHFLAGS) $(PROGFLAGS) -DHAVE_CONFIG_H

Perhaps the FreeBSD implicit make rules neglect CPPFLAGS?
