Triggering tests on baseline `make` is antithetical to the fifty-years of make
"common-law." That contributors continue to submit patches without running
`make check` or `make check-maybe` is unavoidable, but that maintainers merge
those patches without running same is a little strange.
Of course, this all goes away with so-called "CICD" pipelines, the
FSF-sanctioned equivalent being something called "emba," the efficacy of which
remains dubious.
