Compiles the source in the compilation directory, which is pointed

<para>
The default behavior of this task is to run the
<filename>oe_runmake</filename> task if a makefile
(<filename>Makefile</filename>, <filename>makefile</filename>,
or <filename>GNUmakefile</filename>) is found.
If no such file is found, the <filename>do_compile</filename>
task does nothing.
