that's especially a thing I haven't seen in "our" environment,
this was an area where autotools and cmake didn't really differ,
at least not for the Unix/Makefile side of things.

The only thing about parallelism I remember that it sometimes
doesn't work well with the progress percentage output of cmake
generated makefiles ... but that's purely cosmetic.
