Ok, thanks very much for this info.
For my purpose it would be usefull if "glib-full" would start regardless 
of the successfull build result of "glib-quick".

I want to perform tests for different targets (it can be that only one 
target is broken, but I still want to have the tests of the other one(s) 
to be performed).
