Well, it turns out that "make useride" also does not work on a fresh
checkout.
It didn't work when Cleaning is enabled. Fixed.

But the point of the 'main targets' is taken, so I filed a feature
request in the issue tracker to be able to build the LCL using just
the Makefile.
basically, I would like something as
make lcl
to produce the LCL units.
make registration lazutils lcl
Slightly better is:
make -J N registration
make -J N lazutils
make -J N lcl
because the order as specified on the command-line is not guaranteed when you
do parallel compilation.
Still, it feels strange to me that
make lcl
is not enough, but OK.
The problem is that make is pretty dumb, so it creates only a
rudimentary Makefile.compiled file.
Makefile.compiled does not even come into play, see below.
If you use lazbuild or lazarus to compile a project they might decide
to recompile the lcl.
That may not happen, because the sources will not be installed on the build
machine.
It would be safer to compile lazbuild, and then use that to
compile the lcl.
The projects will be compiled with fpc only in a docker environment.
The devops people don't want another build tool. Only make.
(which is why I wanted to have make install working - but I had to resort to
using find and cp manually)
The goal is to have just fpc, its units and the LCL units in compiled form in
the docker.
Michael.
