Is there a way to detect parallel make usage

that the make will work?
Is this a hypothetical problem or are there some testers around using
parallel make? I would expect that many distributions break on parallel
make...

I remember Florian Ragwitz ( FLORA ) toying around with it and asking on
IRC about general smoking stuff. Not sure if he is actually running a
parallel smoker :)
It's also on my todo list to run a smoker like that someday... *evil grin*
Someone is trying (don't know if they are a smoker) but failing horribly:
