I don't have an Amiga emulator set up so I have no way of testing that version. 
The others I can test.

I suspect either makefile.linux or makefile.bsd will work for the Amiga version 
if GNU C is available for that platform.

CMake may also be an option if that's available for the Amiga (and actually 
works).

Makefiles can be rewritten easily. :) Most of the effort is in the source code 
itself, and I doubt any of your improvements were removed. At first glance I 
don't see any Amiga-specific code in there though.
