I have the following targets in the Makefile for Borges:

syntax:                 # checks syntax
test: syntax            # runs unit tests
webtest: test           # launches a test application
objectbrowser: syntax   # launches an ObjectSpace browser app
sushi: syntax           # launches SushiNet
doc: syntax             # creates rdoc
install: test           # installs
clean:                  # remove RDoc and setup.rb files

Despite all these targets, I rarely run make test from vim.  When
running the test suite with -dw, vim typically jumps to the wrong file,
and I'm so used to switching between different screens that I rarely
even think about using vim's make features.
