to abort a "make distcheck" when it's run by root? I haven't tried
that.
The truth of the matter is that we don't use make distcheck.
The [not open-sourced yet] whenjobs-based release scripts build a
candidate tarball from git (ie. make dist). Said tarball is then sent
to several build servers which './configure && make && make check'
it.
So no distcheck is required, and what we are doing now is arguably
more thorough.
