Since every build has different store path, does your question even make sense?

Ditto.

Ditto.

My preferred solution (not with nix) is
        cd /usr/bin
        mv make .make
        echo 'exec /usr/bin/.make -jN $*' > make
        chmod +x make
because it has the major advantage of doing _EXACTLY_ what I expect always.

YMMV

Good luck!
