This is a bit bizarre, actually.  His problem is that the old version of
jade doesn't understand the -wfully-tagged warning option.  But the
comment in the Makefile says

# -wfully-tagged needed to throw a warning on missing tags
# for older tool chains, 2007-08-31

AFAICT, the desirable effect of all these options together is to warn
about empty start tags, but only openjade supports -wfully-tagged, and
even the most recent version needs it to produce that warning.

Of course there could have been intermediate versions that I don't have
access to right now.
