I usually do
	make >& make.out & tail -f make.out
(This is csh; with sh, do make 2>&1 > make.out)

Thus, the make is always in the background, but its output can be followed
on the screen, stopped, restarted etc. Even if the line goes down, the
output will remain. (This can be put in a command file or alias)
