The test target appears to only do something if TARGET is not set:

~~~~~~
tests :
ifndef NOFORTRAN
ifndef TARGET
ifndef CROSS
	touch $(LIBNAME)
ifndef NO_FBLAS
	$(MAKE) -C test all
ifdef UTEST_CHECK
	$(MAKE) -C utest all
endif
endif
ifndef NO_CBLAS
	$(MAKE) -C ctest all
endif
endif
endif
endif
~~~~~~

Since we do pass TARGET=3DSICORTEX the tests are skipped.  I don=E2=80=99=
t know if
there=E2=80=99s a good reason for this.
