+ This adds a -jX option to certain packages that are known to
+ behave well for parallel build. By default the package make processes
+ use the main jobserver, in which case this option only takes effect
+ when you add -jX to the make command.

+ This passes the main make process jobserver fds to package builds,
+ enabling full parallelization across different packages
+
+ Note that disabling this may overcommit CPU resources depending on the
+ -j level of the main make process, the number of package
+ submake jobs selected below and the number of actual CPUs present.
+ Example: If the main make is passed a -j4 and the submake -j
+ is also set to 4, we may end up with 16 parallel make processes
+ in the worst case.
