Hi everyone

It seems that setting the number of parallel builds using '-jN' does not
only work for make, but also for scons and bjam (and maybe others as well).
Since it isn't save to assume that '-jN' is the only option in MAKEOPTS,
some filtering is needed.
Now, SCONSOPTS (BJAMOPTS respectively) could be added to make.conf and used
whenever one of those build-systems is being used. But we would probably
have to add a ...OPTS for every build-system.

What do you think? Better ideas?

I think adding it for each build system is probably a good idea, nobody's guaranteeing option-level compatibility with make. Optionally falling back to using the few valid MAKEOPTS might be a nice addition.

Thanks,
Donnie
