Looks like this was reported to flymake, and is even mentioned in a
comment in (24.3) flymake.el, but I thought there was a chance it should
be in the Emacs tracker too.

Looking at the flymake source code, this still seems to be the case in
Emacs 28.
It seems like this should be pretty easy to fix -- if we extend
`flymake-proc--init-find-buildfile-dir' to take a list of build file
names instead of a single file and then perhaps add a user option to
allow specifying the makefile names and use that in
`flymake-proc-simple-make-init' (etc.)? (And have "Makefile" as the
first entry in that user option to preserve backwards compatibility.)
João, does that sound like a likely solution?
