I don't use makefile templates.  I wrote some CMake macros which describe 
dependencies and action (like running latex).  CMake maps them to Makefile 
rules.  

The reason for doing it this way is 
epix(http://mathcs.holycross.edu/~ahwang/current/ePiX.html), which is a lib 
for drawing mathematically pictures using C++.  The building of the 
executables which spit out eepic/tikz/pstricks code is integrated into the 
latex building process.  If I change the c++-source of a picture the 
executable is build, executed and pdflatex runs.

At the moment all tex-sources and pictures(png,eps) are copied to the build 
directory(out of source building).  Now I playing with the --output-directory 
option to avoid copying and to make it able to use kile's editor features(at 
the moment I'm using texlipse for eclipse). It works fine with pdflatex, but 
the latex->dvips->p2pdf chain omits the picture.

However, I don't think its what you have in mind for kile's makefile 
generation and I don't have any pointers to makefile templates.
