BBCP is a useful program to speed things up when sending files between network machines. It can used multiple streams to make the magic happen. But recently, while trying to compile it (you cant find a prebuilt DEB) in Lubuntu, I faced with the error

*** No rule to make target `makeLinuxi686. Stop.

It meant there was to defined rule in the Makefile for my architecture (that I was using in Lubuntu). So, dirty the hands. Open the Makefile in a text editor and look for the line

Linux

Right after it youll see a line similar to this.

makeLinuxx86_64:
 @make $(MKPARMS) 
 CC=$(LNXCC) 
 BB=$(LNXcc) 
 CFLAGS="$(ENVCFLAGS) $(LNXOPT)" 
 BFLAGS="$(ENVCFLAGS) $(LNXOPT_B)" 
 INCLUDE="$(ENVINCLUDE)" 
 LIBS="$(LNXLIBS64)"

So, I just crossed my fingers (taking my chances) and cloned that part like this

makeLinuxi686:
 @make $(MKPARMS) 
 CC=$(LNXCC) 
 BB=$(LNXcc) 
 CFLAGS="$(ENVCFLAGS) $(LNXOPT)" 
 BFLAGS="$(ENVCFLAGS) $(LNXOPT_B)" 
 INCLUDE="$(ENVINCLUDE)" 
 LIBS="$(LNXLIBS64)"

Saved the file
Then again followed the compilation instructions [like here] and VOILA!!! :D
