Support for parallel make



Hello,

I'm a bit miffed that you didn't include support for parallel make. It would have been super to include support for distcc, but that can be wrapped into a 'normal' parallel-make compatible build.

Simply running make -j2 wouldn't do, since there's lots of stuff going on that make might think was parallelizable, but is not.

It would be nice to invoke 'make $(PARMAKOPTS)' whereever you guys invoke just 'make' to actually do the compilation, and the user could set PARMAKOPTS to '-j2' if they needed parallel compilation.

Or did you already think of this?

Thanks,
