Hi! I tried the files you indicated. I also got no result by typing \ll from vim. But then I noticed in the terminal the following message:
make: *** No rule to make target `dvi'. Stop. It seems that vim-latex detects the presence of the Makefile, and looks for a rule "dvi" whenever it is asked to produce a dvi file. And there is no such rule in your Makefile. However, changing the TTarget from dvi to pdf, and then typing \ll produces a compiled pdf version of your document. So you could either modify the Makefile to add a "dvi" rule, or change the variable TTarget from dvi to pdf.
