Dear Annekatrien,

the README file under ../grass-addons/ states:
The easiest way to compile GRASS Addons modules into your GRASS code 
  is by setting MODULE_TOPDIR on the fly to tell 'make' where to
  find the GRASS source code:

    make MODULE_TOPDIR=$HOME/grass64/

So you need to point make to *source code* and not the installed binaries. That could be for example
mak MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/local/src/grass64/

or wherever you store the source code.

Hope this helps.
Kind regards, Nikos
