Yeah, the 'check' rule currently depends only on the tests we have to build.
   That usually gets most of the libraries but not the command-line
binaries. Unfortunately, the bulk of the test suite (the Python tests)
requires svnadmin, svnlook, svnsync, and svn, and those -- since they aren't
required by the C tests that we *do* build -- aren't built by the 'check' rule.

+1 to 'check' depending on 'all'.
