That would be this stuff taken from latex/Makefile.in:
preview.pdf: preview.drv preview.dtx preview.sty
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'

So I hope for our GNUmakefile,
preview.pdf: latex/preview.drv latex/preview.dtx latex/preview.sty
        cd latex; \
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'; \
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'; \
        $(PDFLATEX) '\nonstopmode \input{preview.drv}'
would do the job. (I haven't tried actually, though. Maybe we also need
PDFLATEX=pdflatex
in GNUmakefile?)
