Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:16 leif]:
 > Well, why use `-p`?
 Because I expect
 {{{
 env SAGE_CHECK=yes MAKE="make -j20" ./sage -i database_pari
 }}}
 to use 20 threads, both for installing (which is pointless for this spkg)
 and for testing.

 > Why verbose?
 Because one test takes an annoyingly long time (about 2 minutes), and with
 `--verbose` you will at least see something happening, at least the
 message "# long time" should be seen. But I can certainly change this if
 it means positive_review.

 > Hopefully the doctesting framework doesn't parse the `--long` into a
 number of threads
 No, it doesn't.

 > If installing it with `SAGE_CHECK=yes` requires the Sage library (or
 likewise, perhaps `gp`), you can't (successfully) install it in advance.
 Another true statement... many optional packages cannot be installed "in
 advance", so why would this be a problem?
