Noah Misch f8252b6418 Fix non-GNU makefiles for AIX make.
Invoking the Makefile without an explicit target was building every
possible target instead of just the "all" target.  Back-patch to 9.3
(all supported versions).

PostgreSQL tests
================

This directory contains a variety of test infrastructure as well as some of the
tests in PostgreSQL. Not all tests are here -- in particular, there are more in
individual contrib/ modules and in src/bin.

Not all these tests get run by "make check". Check src/test/Makefile to see
which tests get run automatically.

  Demonstration programs for libpq that double as regression tests via
  "make check"

  for installing in production databases

  Infrastructure for Perl-based TAP tests

  Test suite for recovery and replication
