Setting FORCE_MAKE_JOBS would be another example which should not 
trigger a rebuild for the user.

Or something like the following, which I had embedded in some other
lang/gcc42 changes, but would have committed by itself otherwise:
"Remove gcc-testsuite from DISTFILES, along with the post-build and
check targets.  This reduces disk and bandwidth consumptions for a
feature (apparently) never used."
