It primarily targets GNU-style Makefiles.

The parser handles the common Make syntax, so some checks will also work 
on BSD Makefiles, but it does not properly understand BSD make 
constructs such as .include, .if, .for, etc. In fact, the parser is 
intentionally minimal rather than a complete make grammar.
