It looks to me like all you have to do is set "buildmakejobs" to the number of jobs you want make to use. I assume port will then use that many jobs when a portfile allows it.
The number of build jobs is ignored, until the port says that it works. (otherwise the above is right, you can also say "0" to mean "# of cores")
Setting of "makefile_isnt_buggy" was renamed to "use_parallel_build"...
Thanks, everyone. I also checked out the code to confirm that it does work this way. http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/browser/trunk/base/src/ port1.0/portbuild.tcl I filed a ticket to request it be documented in the guide. http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14164
