Makemap is a part of the sendmail package: 

/usr/src/contrib/sendmail/makemap

I'm very interested in seeing the messages milter-gris generated,
either privately or to the list. I'm quite certain that Anthony Howe
(the author, yes?) will be interested, too. 

What level sendmail are you running?

Run "`which sendmail` -d0.1 < /dev/null", without the exterior "",
to see. Increasing the debug level n (-d0.n) will give you increasingly
more information, as you probably know. Max useful is -d0.99. 

I use the graymilter code from acme.com, which isn't as flexible as 
milter-gris, but gets the job done.
