Thank you!

The top-level Makefile uses ‘cask’ to bytecompile and test the package
tarball.  The ‘$(PACKAGE_NAME).tar’ target contains the only line that
copies the elisp files to the target directory, but it’s amidst lines
required for building the tarball.  I don’t think there’s a good way to
reuse the top-level Makefile.
