Hi Ferruh,

I'm not sure I'm convinced by this, as I think there are advantages to
having the test code always compiled. Anything that is not compiled in
DPDK by default is more likely to be broken by patch submissions. The
speed boost to build is nice, but I'm not sure it's worth it.
However, I'm open to being convinced otherwise on this...
