  I don't know if I understood you ok, are you looking for a complex project 
developed with RHIDE?
  If yes just download the RHIDE sources, the thing is giant and is constructed 
with RHIDE projects (nested projects).

  Take a look to the RHIDE sources you'll see that some things aren't make
using  projects because is harder than using make files.
  Some examples for the case:
1) The .info files are created calling to makeinfo and other utilities (like 
sed) to create .info, .html, .txt, .dvi, .ps, etc files from a .txi source. As 
that isn't C code is hard (if not impossible) to configure RHIDE to create the 
target files.
2) The language files are made collecting strings from various files and 
creating .po files these files are compiled to .mo files. This task is made 
with make files.
  These 2 examples shows cases where a makefile is used even when the main 
project is an RHIDE project.
  If your project involves things like that you can mix the 2 things.
  IMHO RHIDE helps a lot to create projects but sometimes you'll need to use 
makefiles for things that in general aren't specifically programs.
