    v11 v12  
    3030In order to save time while debugging problems revealed by validate, the validate script understands several flags. These flags, and others understood by `validate` are documented in the `validate` script itself. 
    3131  * '''`--no-clean`''':  validate will not clean the tree before starting, so it will continue a previous build.  
     32  * '''`--fast`''':  validate skips the build-a-distribution step, and does not build dynamic libraries.  
     33  * '''`--slow`''': turns on `-DDEBUG` for the stage2 compiler, and runs more tests 
    3234  * '''`--testsuite-only`''': then validate will not build the tree at all, but only run the testsuite. This is useful if the problems validate found were only due to the testsuite falling out of sync with the code.
