Yea. I certainly have written scripts that parse check-world output - they
didn't break, but...

As it's just about "free" to do so, I see no reason not to go for showing that
difference.  How about:

echo "+++ (tap|regress|isolation) [install-]check in $(subdir) +++" && \

I see no reason to distinguish the PGXS / non-PGXs tap installcheck cases?


Random aside: Am I the only one bothered by a bunch of places in
Makefile.global.in quoting like
  $(MAKE) -C '$(top_builddir)' DESTDIR='$(abs_top_builddir)'/tmp_install 
install >'$(abs_top_builddir)'/tmp_install/log/install.log 2>&1
and
  rm -rf '$(CURDIR)'/tmp_check &&
etc
yielding commands like:
  make -C '.' 
DESTDIR='/home/andres/build/postgres/dev-assert/vpath'/tmp_install install 
>'/home/andres/build/postgres/dev-assert/vpath'/tmp_install/log/install.log 2>&1
and
  rm -rf 
'/home/andres/build/postgres/dev-assert/vpath/contrib/test_decoding'/tmp_check &
