It was redundant.  The JFLAG was already being passed via MAKEOPTIONS.

Actually, I would love to have a 'kernels' target and use
'make UNIVERSE_TARGET=kernels universe' to replace MAKE_JUST_KERNELS,
but the kernel build stuff is quite convoluted.  One could though
do something like 'make UNIVERSE_TARGET=buildkernel' assuming that
'make buildkernel' always chose a suitable KERNCONF (I'm betting it doesn't
on powerpc64), so it's not strictly speaking just for world targets.

I think the main idea is that if UNIVERSE_TARGET is set, only that step is
done for all targets.  Otherwise the default action is to build world +
kernels for all targets.  In that case having it be UNIVERSE_TARGET makes
sense I think.
