Unfortunately no, it is not a good makefile. It uses a way of writing
packages that is deprecated since multiple years. Please use the
generic-package or autotools-package infrastructure. Refer to the
Buildroot manual at
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#adding-packages.

It is a good place.

Could you list which sources/references you've found, so that we can
kill them, and make those incorrect informations disappear?
The authoritative source of documentation for Buildroot is the
Buildroot documentation itself.
Raah, Google is great... but nowadays people use Google first and find
some random information, rather than first look at the project's
documentation. I don't blame you: I do the same in many cases :-)
Best regards,
Thomas
