buildfarm actually runs in this order:

make
make check
make contrib
make install
... more steps

I assume that's ok.

I will try. For Windows especially, it's possibly quite a deal of work - 
the client is running experimental code that is quite radically 
different from the released buildfarm code. Getting it to work with 
python, tcl, and openssl will be fun ... at any rate it will not be done 
by me for days. If anyone else (Magnus? Dave?) can supply this info for 
Windows I'd be glad.
