Added Makefile target "check" and variants.
This can be used like "make check" or, to explicitly skip a
language LANG: "make skip-LANG=true check". LANG is skipped
automatically if ./configure determines that LANG support is
insufficient.
Currently, the check is limited to doing the equivalent of
"make all" in some of the Examples directories. This should
be expanded both horizontally (different types of tests) and
vertically (after "make all" in an Examples subdir succeeds,
do some additional tests with the resulting interpreter, etc).
