please have a look at the `qmake` tool which is installed with SGE in case you 
want to start the compilation on the command line (`man qmake`).

If you are submitting the complete `make` job to a batch queue already, you 
could use:

make -j $NSLOTS

in your jobscript and it will be replaced at runtime with the requested number 
of slots as you specified it as argument to `qsub -pe smp 4` or alike. If you 
want to use always all cores in a machine:

  qsub -l exclusive -pe smp -999 make.sh

will always use the maximum up to 999 cores in a machine ("exclusive" is a complex being set up with 
"relop EXCL", "smp" a PE setup with "allocation_rule $pe_slots") and set $NSLOTS 
accordingly at runtime.

Hmmm.  That's an interesting trick.

Our make invocations are already embedded in lengthy Bash scripts submitted to GE. We use on slot per machine and one slot per job to ensure exclusive access (within that queue) to a given machine. Then we invoke make from the script like this:

    cpus=`grep processor /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
    make -j ${cpus}  .......
