"make help" for help with our Makefile targets, and adds a
mini-help when you just run "make".

+This is the file that gets printed when the user runs "make help",
+starting just after the "help-starts-here" line.
+
+help-starts-here
+
+all
+	The usual default; builds everything but doesn't run the
+	tests.
+
+check (or tests)
+	Runs the standard set of tests.
+
+test
+	Runs one test.  Use like this:
+		make test t=wcsmbs/test-wcsnlen
+	Note that this will rebuild the test if needed, but will not
+	rebuild what "make all" would have rebuilt.
+
+--
+Other useful hints:
+
+builddir$ rm testroot.pristine/install.stamp
+	Forces the testroot to be reinstalled the next time you run
+	the testsuite (or just rm -rf testroot.pristine)
