[uClinux-dev] parallel compiles

is there a reason for forcing -j1 in sub-packages ?  we've dropped the -j1 in 
{lib,user}/Makefile for the DIRS target and generally had great success.  you 
can really feel the difference on an 8 or 16 proc system.  i also replaced 
the -j1 for the _only targets with -j$(HOST_NCPU).

if a package fails to build in parallel, i think the correct answer is fix the 
package in question.  if that is too burdensome, you can always force single 
jobs in the one package directory rather than forcing everyone else.
