Hmm... I used -j long time ago and it worked. Also I can understand the
benefits of this options. I'd be much happier to see a fix.

Sorry, but I won't push your patch. But dwmw2, tglx1, or jwb can do this
if they consider it necessary.

I think someone instead should dig this and realize what exactly went
broke, why, and how can we fix this.

A patch which just prints "This option is broken" would be accepted by
me.
