I’m trying to get flymake to work, but when I run flymake-mode, I get the following error

switched OFF Flymake mode for buffer TdDisassemblerIde.cpp due to fatal status \
PROCERR, warning Failed to launch syntax check process 'make' with args (-s -C ./ \
CHK_SOURCES=TdDisassemblerIde_flymake.cpp SYNTAX_CHECK_MODE=1 check-syntax): Wrong type \    
argument: symbolp, (utf-8)

Any clues?
