I just ended up running the r.js build command with gulp-shell:

var gulp = require('gulp'),
    shell = require('gulp-shell');

// Run the r.js command, so simple taks :)
gulp.task('scripts', shell.task([
    'r.js -o build/r/build.js'
]))

It takes roughly 2 seconds to run, not too long at all.

The r settings are defined in an external build.js file that Gulp knows nothing about.
