 ****************************** SPECIAL WARNING: ******************************
 
+20170814:
+       "make check" behavior (made in ^/head@r295380) has been changed to
+       execute from a limited sandbox, as opposed to executing from
+       ${TESTSDIR}.
+
+       Behavioral changes:
+       - The "beforecheck" and "aftercheck" targets are now specified.
+       - ${CHECKDIR} (added in commit noted above) has been removed.
+       - Legacy behavior can be enabled by setting
+         WITHOUT_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX in src.conf(5) or the environment.
+
+       If the limited sandbox mode is enabled, "make check" will execute
+       "make distribution", then install, execute the tests, and clean up the
+       sandbox if successful.
+
+       The "make distribution" and "make install" targets are typically run as
+       root to set appropriate permissions and ownership at installation time.
+       The end-user should set "WITH_INSTALL_AS_USER" in src.conf(5) or the
+       environment if executing "make check" with limited sandbox mode using
+       an unprivileged user.
