I was thinking of something like a eninja function, which would call
ninja ${NINJAOPTS}. But parsing MAKEOPTS would probably work just as
well.

warranted.
I can't really see ninja use really expanding too much. Maybe I will
wait a while and see if it happens.

As a user you shouldn't have to know or care what build system a package uses, or have to set a half dozen variables to get consistent behaviour. -- Ryan Hillpsn: dirtyepic_sk gcc-porting/toolchain/wxwidgets @ gentoo.org 47C3 6D62 4864 0E49 8E9E 7F92 ED38 BD49 957A 8463 signature.asc Description: PGP signature
