Extra info ;)
I assume that a dist target also tests the code (never used dist btw..)
eg the Eclipse project also makes a dist with failed tests...
Cut & past from a mail of them :
Integration build 200205291235 is now available for download from
eclipse.org.
<start>
NEW! HPUX-MOTIF drops now available
Failed Unit Tests:
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests.refactoring
org.eclipse.update.tests.core
<end>
