I had the same thought, while wondering if all the ugliness in [4/4]
is really worth it.

The steps 2/4 and 3/4 did look like a useful feature, but I wonder
why we even need to introduce NO_TEST_TOOLS in the first place.
Wouldn't it be more natural to arrange them to be built by making
"test::" target depend on them?  IOW, why do we need to have "all::"
(our default) target depend on them?

And if we are not doing [4/4], I suspect [1/4], while it is not bad
as a clean-up, would become less attractive.

So...
