I think this is a little too strict: given that parallel makes
don't work at all at present, any improvement would be
worthwhile. The important thing is not to break the existing
build. So a patch which makes say 50% of build orderings work
rather than say 30% at present (figures plucked from the air)
would be worth applying.
I may send such patches - next time I build xemacs and get a
failure due to a missing dependency I will add it.
