Also, we could advise to use the `-k' option of make.

And there's another quite non-obvious thing, currently we always
run the conformtest, but it is fairly time-consuming and yet we
still ignore its result.  There's, however, a way how to disable
just this one test:
make fast-check=yes -k check
Maybe we should add this to wiki, too.
