I just hit this too, and I was sad to read on that bug that 'make
check' is not meant for developers to run.  Decades of Unix practice
have established this as a standard interface to run the tests -- to
have it exist but be the interface you're not supposed to use is
pretty hostile to would-be developers.

At the moment, there are, at least, 'make check', ./bin/test,
./test_on_merge.py, that I know of at least.  I'm sure it's incredibly
complicated but it would be nice if make check just did the right
thing, or at least if <https://dev.launchpad.net/Testing> explained
what they were for.  What gives the most accurate prediction of what
ec2test will say?
