#218: Makefile can't be run with -j4
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 Reporter:  MtnViewMark             |       Owner:  duncan
     Type:  defect                  |      Status:  new   
 Priority:  major                   |   Milestone:        
Component:  Generic source tarball  |    Keywords:        
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 Because we don't encode the package dependencies into the makefile,
 running -j4 causes havoc - as packages get built in parallel, not in
 order.

 At least we should document this in the README.
 Better would be to have the makefile somehow reject the -j4
 Better still would be for it to actually work!
