Let me rephrase the problem,  there are some problems in some
individual ports using waf.
Those ports do not respect ${MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER},  especially when
MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER=1.
This breaks qemu which is not multi job friendly  (people using qemu
have DISABLE_MAKE_JOBS=yes which sets MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER to 1).

Cheers,

Antoine
