I am not sure what the question intends.

I will reply to this interpretation of your question.

When you run make, what makefile will it run ?

From man make we have

If no -f option is present, make will look for the makefiles GNUmakefile, makefile, and Makefile, in that order.

If your make file has a name different from one of these names say unix.mak, then you need to call the make as

Code:
make -f unix.mak

Name
       mmd - make an MSDOS subdirectory

Note of warning
       This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete.  See the
       end of this man page for details.

Description
       The mmd command is used to make an MS-DOS subdirectory. Its syntax is:

       mmd [-D clash_option] msdosdirectory [ msdosdirectories... ]

       Mmd makes a new directory on an MS-DOS file system. An error occurs if the directory already exists.

       Mtools' texinfo doc

Viewing the texi doc
       This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only  approximative,  and  some
       items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process.  Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre-
       sentation in the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information has been translated into the manpage version.  Thus I strongly  advise  you
       to use the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

       *      To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

		     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

       *      To generate a html copy,	run:

		     ./configure; make html

       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'

       *      To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

		     ./configure; make info

       The  texinfo  doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
       quoting conventions used in info.
