The problem with making it an opt out is that there are plenty of
packages that do not support parallel build, and the first rule is Don't
Break Existing (Working) Stuff.

Enabling it by default that means that a bunch of maintainers who
haven't heard anything about working packages for years will suddenly
get reports of random failing.  Not really a good thing IMHO, especially
since parallel-make issues are generally non-obvious and difficult to debug.
