 I think in this case, it is better to run the test code in {{{spkg-
 install}}} on every build, as it takes takes very little time - about 5
 seconds to do so on my machine. As such, I suggest we

  * Remove the code that actually checks for SAGE_CHECK in spkg-install.
  * Run the tests all the time.
  * Make spkg-check just return 0 - there's not much point running it
 twice.

 One issue here is that {{{make}}} exits with 0, even if the test suite
 fails. I found this after purposely inducing some failures. It makes me
 wonder how many other test suites do this too!

 See also #9767 and some comments from myself and Leif.
