My idea was that passing -j to port Makefile does nothing, as make/gmake on vendor's Makefile is ran without any -j flags -> you get usual singlethreaded build. However, I have a broken port, which uses gmake and something like that: sometarget: (cd xxx; make) and that fails with -j (make: illegal option -- -). So is there some magic with recursive make calls and -j? -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru
