I've used make for building .ui files into .py code when PyQt4 couldn't
load them during runtime. I can imagine mixed setups where some makefile
targets build documentation, byte-compile perl or python code or just
run some shell script to package the project. 

Don't assume a certain language is used with a certain build tool. We
have language support on a per file basis.

And no I don't see why we should need a CppMakeBuilder, what would be
the difference to a "standard" makebuilder? After all all a makebuilder
does is execute make in a certain directory with a certain target and
possibly some arguments.
