We used to keep the build instructions in a central location, but it turned out that many maintainers needed to modify the Makefile to do machine-specific setups (setting up paths, mainly). What we could do is to leave the current "make build" in place, but to change the "make test" step to be common to all. We'd have to figure out which Python binary to run because, again, it depends on the build-slave setup.
