Simplify building without tests

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When tests fail to compile for whatever reason, it is convenient for end
users to be able to compile the rest of the package anyway.  I have patched
the build file to make this easier.

The patch basically changes the compile target not to compile tests,
creates a new compile-tests target that compiles only tests (to a dedicated
directory), creates a compile-all target that depends on compile and
compile-tests, and makes compile-all the default.

I know there are other ways to modify the build to accomplish the same
goal, and I can change my patch if desired.  There are probably bugs in the
patch, because I have not been able to fully test (because the tests don't
compile. :) ).
