Description:
------------
There is a += in the ext/informix/Makefile.frag for the OVERALL_TARGET which I don't think is right. I've never seen this used in Makefiles though I'm not an expert. This prevents make from working and gives me this:
make: make 1254-025 There must be an existing description file or specify a target.

When I do the patch below and simply replace the += with = the make runs fine.

I didn't really see related bugs nor the use of += in other projects

Thanks
