freebsd-skq/bin/Makefile
dim 905ed8bc75 Add a SUBDIR_PARALLEL option to bsd.subdir.mk, to allow make to process
all the SUBDIR entries in parallel, instead of serially.  Apply this
option to a selected number of Makefiles, which can greatly speed up the
build on multi-core machines, when using make -j.

This can be extended to more Makefiles later on, whenever they are
verified to work correctly with parallel building.

I tested this on a 24-core machine, with make -j48 buildworld (N = 6):

                before    stddev       after    stddev
                =======   ======       =======  ======
real time        1741.1     16.5         959.8     2.7
user time       12468.7     16.4       14393.0    16.8
sys  time        1825.0     54.8        2110.6    22.8

(user+sys)/real     8.2                   17.1

E.g. the build was approximately 45% faster in real time.  On machines
with less cores, or with lower -j settings, the speedup will not be as
impressive.  But at least you can now almost max out a machine with
buildworld!
