Toplevel's make build is different from the modules' make build.
_For me_ it's more like: do only build LibreOffice without installing.
But of course it could also mean without running tests.

For now, I created patch, which allows you to build what you want in
module. (when the make is triggered by build.pl)
Default is: make all slowcheck # all="build unitcheck"
You need to set gb_MAKETARGET like this:
make gb_MAKETARGET=build all
make gb_MAKETARGET="unitcheck slowcheck" # prolly does not make sense
make gb_MAKETARGET=build tools.all
or whatever you want.

Of course we can automatically set gb_MAKETARGET=build when running
toplevel's make build
if people don't use it like it was the same as 'make all' and was
supposed to mean:
build LibreOffice without dev-installing and running subsequent checks.

If there is input from people to tell how we should set targets, .., I
think we can do ~anything.

Best,
Matúš
