Thanks for the bug report. I'm guessing you're using Emacs 30.0.50. This 
is a bug, in that eshell/make should print its output to the Eshell 
buffer by default (not a new compilation buffer). That's now fixed in 
4834be0949e on master, so closing this issue.

However, for fixing the colors in the compilation buffer, you can also 
add 'ansi-color-compilation-filter' to 'compilation-filter-hook'.
