I would suggest setting up a minimal working example to confirm that the problem is with the gvim setup rather than in the other files and file locations.
In the same directory, a test .tex file of:
\documentclass{article}
\bibliographystyle{amsplain}
\begin{document}
test
\bibliography{TeX}
\end{document}
and a TeX.bib of
@book{diller97,
author = "Antoni Diller",
title = "{\LaTeX} Line by Line",
year = "1997",
edition = "1st",
publisher = "Wiley",
address = "Chichester, England"
}
@book{goossens99,
author = "Michel Goossens and Sebastian Rahtz",
title = "The {\LaTeX} Web Companion",
year = "1999",
edition = "1st",
publisher = "Addison-Wesley",
address = "Boston, Massachusetts"
}
works for my set-up when adding the line \cite{} after the line test and then pressing F9.
A second check: is vim-latexsuite is working for other functions? For example, with gvim, there would usually be several 'TeX-...' entries on the main menu. vim-latexsuite on some systems must be both installed and then manually set up. For example, on Ubuntu 11.04, you have to set up latexsuite after installation via synaptic:
By default, vim-latexsuite is not enabled. Please read
/usr/share/doc/vim-latexsuite/README.Debian after installing the
package.
FWIW, my directory ~/.vim has subdirectories that include one, ftplugin, that, in turn, contains another subdirectory, latex-suite, but also two files: bib_latexSuite.vim and tex_latexSuite.vim. Unless you're also running Ubuntu 11.04 I would not expect exactly the same files but I would expect some files relating to latexsuite and to bib in the .vim directory in your home directory (if you are using GNU/Linux).
The following works on my end: Create a file called latexmk.vimrc in the current directory with the following content
set nocompatible
filetype plugin on
set grepprg=grep\ -nH\ $*
filetype indent on
let g:tex_flavor='latex'
let g:Tex_DefaultTargetFormat = 'pdf'
let g:Tex_CompileRule_pdf = 'latexmk -pdf -f $*'
set iskeyword+=:
Call vim -u latexmk.vimrc filename where filename is a tex file. Type \ll in normal mode runs latexmk. I need to press enter at the end but I don't know how to get rid of that.

If I understand you correctly, you have tried
makeand notmake install.The Makefile is written such that
makedownloads the newest snapshot with SVN, andmake installinstalls it. Trymake installinstead!I would have written suggestion as a comment, but I do not have enough reputation.
