New description:

 When using:

 ```
 make installcheck RUNTESTFLAGS=-v
 ```

 The RUNTESTFLAGS is fully set by user instead of being *appended_to*.
 This means the internal `--extension` switch won't be used, defeating the
 purpose of the `installcheck`.

 Note that this would work:
 ```
 RUNTESTFLAGS=-v make installcheck
 ```

 The gitlab-ci configuration in branch 2.5 is using the non-functional
 call, resulting in lack of install check and duplicated normal check.

 This was fixed from 3.0 onward, see commit
 [ae5e5a8f816b70d82d43964bb81395c1b685ec29/git]
