recheck not dependent on all:

[Peter Johansson]

Hello,

I find the recheck target very handy. In most projects we have a 
recursive structure and added a

recheck: all
    (cd test && make $@)

in top_dir. And typically I work like

edit sources
make recheck VERBOSE=1 -j8
edit source
etc

which works very nice. Now I've started to work in a project with 
non-recursive Makefile and I tried working the same fashion but got very 
confused until I realized recheck does not depend on all, so my changes 
in source did not affect the test result unless i did

make all -j8 && make recheck VERBOSE=1 -j8

I'm just curious; why isn't 'recheck' automatically doing that for me in 
the same fashion as 'check' depends on 'all'.

Cheers,
Peter
