Comment (by rhaas):

 I agree (and retract my objection) to the form of the make call "nice
 make" should always be fine. I'd still a bit unhappy about using ppn" for
 the "-j" option in make though. Personally I still rather let the user
 pass "-j<something>" in as part of a "--make" option to setup. However
 this seems to lead to a proliferation of options. So in the end: Please
 apply.

 Another question: currently macro_CREATE_MACHINE bases the created machine
 file on generic.ini which (in my checkout at least) sets ppn=max-num-
 threads=1 which seems to defeat the purpose of using more than one core.
 Is this correct?
