Comment (by rhaas):

 Fine with the 'ppn', 'max-num-threads' changes and 'num-threads'. I
 disagree with changing the "make" field however since the patch hard codes
 the assumption that the make call is "nice make -j %d" which is not
 necessarily true: the make invocation could set environment variables (eg
 INTEL_LICENSE), load extra modules, call envsetup or use a make in
 different location (eg. version 3.82 which *finally* reports just which
 dependency is missing when aborting with error 2). Also there is no need
 for a head node to have the same number of cores as a compute node so
 tying the number of make processes to the number of compute node cores
 seems to be unnecessary.
