The make-options (-j..) are not relevant for my case. If you're only trying to parallelize the building of one package, and make -jN doesn't help you, you're pretty much SOL. However, Mezzanine can parallelize multiple package builds simultaneously. This is a better technique for build systems, IMHO. Contact me off-list if you'd like more info.
