Yes, I did't make clear that I understood that. Sorry.
Doing that will require people to always type 'make all' and then a 'make 
install'.
I'm pretty sure that this is going to give people big question marks above 
their heads since thats a logical dependency. Make install should always 
depend on make all.

To put this in perspective; I asked for a make target to install one 
specific library, which includes the compiling of the right sourcefiles 
needed for that.
This feature is not possible in cmake and all suggestions made in this 
thread either disrupt the normal workflow or just do a lot of work thats 
not needed.
If the /fast is available then that will ease the pain already somewhat :)
