See the installation guide for information about the relevant environment
variables. I think that we should set SAGE_PARALLEL_SPKG_BUILD to "yes"
automatically -- it works very well, according to everyone I've talked to
about it.
And short of making it the default, at least it could be documented in
the README file or the Makefile (in addition to the install guide):
wstein@ubuntu:~/sage-4.7$ grep "SAGE_PARALLEL" *
wstein@ubuntu:~/sage-4.7$
Yeah, I always have to look it up on the internet to see if it's
SAGE_PARALLEL_SPKG_BUILD or SAGE_SPKG_PARALLEL_BUILD. Maybe both
should be allowed... or other permutations even...

I don't think we should permit combinations - it makes testing for the variable
more difficult. When do we stop if we allow any combination of variable names?
IMHO, we should document this in a few places, so people are more likely to find
it. Perhaps in the top level README.txt.
