It already is. If you have a temp_install with all the required pieces
do "make NO_TEMP_INSTALL=1 check"
The logic I am adding to the buildfarm is essentially to install contrib
and test_modules in the temp install directory as part of their install
steps and to check that that's been done before using NO_TEMP_INSTALL.
