Greetings!  The latest 2.7.1 release implements the GNU build system with parallel support.  Please be aware that that you will likely have to control the memory consumption via GCL_ environment variables as documented in the latest release notes when running large parallel jobs  When doing so, parallel builds are very stable and standard now.

Thanks so much for your report!

Greetings, and thanks for your report!  Yes there has been no thought put into this thus far, and indeed the entire make system needs an overhaul.  Will try to get to this by next release.
