Hi.
I'm working on making package tests run on embedded targets, for which the code
is cross-compiled and where there are no compilers installed.
For this to work, I need to split "make check" into two targets, so I can build
the tests on host and run them on the embedded target.
This is my current patch, for serial test only. Is this a sensible approach?
