I think you want build.sh makewrapper

Like my /home/netbsd/tools/bin/nbmake-i386 contains e.g. ...
#! /bin/sh
# Set proper variables to allow easy "make" building of a NetBSD subtree.
# Generated from:  $NetBSD: build.sh,v 1.198.2.3 2009/03/18 05:39:06 snj Exp $
# with these arguments: -T ../tools -D ../dest -R ../release -O ../obj .........
....
exec "${TOOLDIR}/bin/nbmake" ${1+"$@"}

I.e. isn't that exactly what you're looking for? Just use this makewrapper 
instead
of make and you should be fine.
