One other note on this question-- Sage already leverages the existing
parallel build capability of make to handle this.  I don't think
there's anything deep to it, though Jeroen can correct me if there are
details I'm missing.

Even if there weren't some existing parallel build capability for
conda packages, it would at most a couple hours to write (at least a
prototype of) something that parses out the dependency tree for a
given conda package, and writes it out to a Makefile template with the
appropriate rules set up.
