* I speculate that disabling dependency tracking results in such
dependencies as the target creating the "tests" directory being skipped
or even not-generated, but I do not know the actual details.

* Customizing various installation directories should not affect the build.

* I assume the host settings are correct.

* Disabling silent rules is a bad idea during build triage, but should
not affect the build outcome AFAICT.

You can easily test this theory. I cannot, but my first bet would be on
--disable-dependency-tracking.

Glad we could identify the primary suspect. You should probably follow
up with Gentoo folks responsible for this Squid customization.
