The goal of colormake is to add side effects to the make command (add colors to the output).
Some scripts use make and may be very broken if the output of make contains colors added to the normal output.

Replacing make by colormake will have desastrous (and hard to debug) side effects.

If you want you can just configure your bash to use colormake by default:
$ alias make=colormake

I (Debian maintainer of colormake) propose to close/reject this bug.
