I have a simple idea to make use the threads without any possibility of
conflicts.  I am sure there will be someone to point out a negative, but
I don't see any.
When you do "make install" launch a "make fetch-recursive" thread at the
same time.  That way you don't need to wait for the files to
install->fetch the next one->install it->fetch the next one...
For those who don't want that you could get the old behavior with "make
onlyinstall".  I currently do this with a "make" wrapper script and I
find installation to be faster.
