Hello,

I was wondering why the prereq.mk contains the .NOTPARALLEL: (last line)

It got introduced in r8242 to let 'make -j' work according to the commit
message.

But I do not see why checking for commands/libraries/headers/etc cannot
happen in parallel?


Some context:
We are using the build system to build a custom library and use
prereq.mk also during compilation. I just found out that
the .NOTPARALLEL target prevent parallel building of our library (and
the required tools). So ideally I would like to remove the line (it does
not seem to break anyone obvious)


So any comments on this line would be appreciated.
Thanks,
  Maarten
