build src with colored output?

[Johannes Lundberg]

Gonna answer myself here. Think I found a way.

Add CFLAGS=-fcolor-diagnostics to env or /etc/src.conf
Do clean build, that is no -DNO_CLEAN,KERNFAST, etc.

Makes it a lot easier to find the errors in a 16 threads build output...

The mystery still remains though, why is color disabled for parallel
builds?
