 I can do cleanup of check targets too, but can we first have a consensus on 
what the result of the cleanup actually should be? AFAICT the various check 
targets are an inconsistent mess too: In a module, 'make check' is equivalent 
to 'make unitcheck slowcheck'. But at the top level, 'make check' is 
equivalent to 'make unitcheck slowcheck subsequentcheck uicheck'.

 So, proposal: 'slowcheck' will be deprecated and will simply map 
to 'unitcheck', and 'unitcheck' will be the target to get just the "fast" 
checks. 'check' will map to 'unitcheck slowcheck subsequentcheck uicheck' 
also in modules. That would be consistent and also mostly backwards 
compatible (with the exception of 'make <module>.check').

 Any comments or better ideas?
