I just pushed to elpa.git a change to `GNUmakefile` which shouild make
it so you can

    make packages/<mypkg>

and it will only compile the ELisp files of <mypkg> (it also updates
the `<pkg>-pkg.el` and `<pkg>-autoloads.el` along the way, so it
also does the job needed for the package to be "ready to use" by
`package-activate`).
