That can cause make problems, but those are usually rare. Doing a make check is quite time consuming for some users and slow, so as long as you don't mind the potential wait for your patch to be tested (by me - others also run patchy but may not do the full make doc) think of it like just 'good manners' to do at _least_ a make ;) James
