Does the build process invoke sub-makes (make -C subdir)?  In that case, your alias command would cause "gmake" to be invoked on the command line, but any sub-makes would not be aliased, and use the "make" program that is in your path.  Maybe I'm missing something, but this would explain the discrepancy.
