Wow! And all this time i thought Make was going out of style! (Not that i'd
stray from it, but i tend to be in the minority of my peers when it comes to
preferred toolchains.)

If GNU make developers are interested in the scalability of GNU make

i can't express how surprised i am by this, given the size and scope of
OpenOffice. That will certainly provide some interesting technical
challenges, and should prove to be an interesting use case for GNU Make.

Good luck! :)
