Yes, but I meant this to be a per-Portfile choice so a maintainer can mark his/her port as being able to build in parallel. Doing this with the sledgehammer for all ports that use 'make' might be a bit too much. ;)
It is supposed to be the default... But broken ports might need some way of signalling so, maybe "build.jobs 1".
For build.nice it might be cool++ to do change the nice level for port(1) directly so all phases run with low priority, not just the build phase.
"nice port" ? I'm not sure if Mac OS X has ionice, but it might be useful for resource hogs like e.g. bzip2... --anders
