No. Makefiles have a lot of uses in project management. Try to read up on tools like make, automake, autoconf, etc. There is a book called the "The Autobook" which describes all the tools used for project management in the GNU world. I think it is available on http://www.andamooka.org/ Or you can simply search on google ... Some Makefile's do have the "uninstall" target, in which case a "make uninstall" will do the job. But the best thing is to do "make -n install" or "make -n" and dump the output into a file. The -n option simply simulates all the actions that make will take, without actually doing anything. you can use this file to figure out which files got installed where on your system.
