So, to reiterate, I'm asking what in the hell is the purpose of the "make check" in these packages? Is it to test the build, or to test the validity of the documentation files? Are the doc files being built during the build, and then they are tested?
This target is presumably used by developers before release to make sure that no dumb mistakes (like mismatched format strings in the original message and its translations, or invalid XML in documentation) get into released versions.
