I see that the installcheck-parallel was not added to the top level
Makefile and Gnumakefile.in when it was added as a regression test
target back in the 8.0 cycle. Is there any objection to my adding it now
so that it is treated the same as the other regression test targets? If
so, should I add it just to HEAD, or backpatch it to 8.0 and 8.1?
(Reasoning: I got confused for a few seconds and thought maybe I had
mistyped the target name, before I realised what was wrong, but others
less familiar than I am with the testing structure might well get rather
more confused.)

cheers

I didn't get any response to this so I'm going to add this and back port
it, since the risk factor is pretty well zero, and I suspect it was just
an inadvertent omission a couple of years ago.
