Makefile: workaround make 4.3 issue for 'printvars and 'show-vars'

Browse Source 
Event though the bug with make 4.3 has been reported and fixed, there
has not been a release of make with the fix for a long time, see [1].

As the root cause seems the 'filter' command cannot handle large
chunks of data, like .VARIABLES, we can workaround the problem by
using a foreach command over .VARIABLES, then use the filter command.

It might not be logical to program it that way, but at least the
functionality is now usable.
