using contemporary (q)make with Grid Engine OGS/GE 2011.11p1. -- approaches sought

[Cook, Malcolm]

Hello, Grid Engine and GNU Make aficionados,

I am experienced with qmake - distributed parallel make, scheduling by Sun Grid 
Engine<http://gridscheduler.sourceforge.net/htmlman/htmlman1/qmake.html> that 
comes with Grid Engine: OGS/GE 2011.11p1 and "is based on GNU make, version 
3.82".

I am hoping to find a version of qmake based on a more contemporary GNU make, 
such as 4.2.1, and/or alternative approaches to using make 4.2.1 with 
scheduling performed by SGE that will interoperate with my installation of 
OGS/GE 2011.11p1.

I welcome advice on compiling it myself, open-source and/or commercial 
possibilities, and using alternate approaches to integrating GNU make 4.2.1 
with OGS/GE 2011.11p1.

Thanks,
