<h3>Hiding command lines</h3>
<p>The default of the build system will be to hide the command lines being
executed for make steps. It will be possible to override this by specifying
the showcommands pseudo-target, and possibly by setting an environment
variable.</p>

the default android configuration, and <code>make runtime showcommands</code>
will build just the runtime, and targets that it depends on, while displaying
the full command lines. Please note that there are a couple places where the
