make M-x compile aware of where cursor is in Makefile maybe

[Dan Jacobson]

Feature addition suggestion: have an variable that could activate
this:

When the cursor is in a certain area of a Makefile, the suggested
default in the minibuffer should be to "make <that part>", e.g,

for Makefile portion

tm2pole-test: tm2pole
        ./$< < $?.data
pole2tm-test: pole2tm
        ./$< < $?.data

if the cursor is in line 1 or 2, then upon typing M-x compile, one
should see
Compile command: make tm2pole-test
proposed in the minibuffer.

[but what if one still wants to do several make -n tm2pole-test's
first?  OK, maybe just automate minibuffer proposal of last argument,
remember other arguments.]

If we aren't visiting a [Mm]akefile when M-x compile is invoked, then
just give the last minibuffer proposal, as usual.
