Yes. Especially with testing patches. Sometimes a developer submits a patch 
without doing basic make (or they end up submitting a patch from their 'own' 
tree that breaks make on current master), so having two distinct make commands 
helps me help them determine the patch error.

(if that is where we were going with this).
