... more snipped ...

   why are individual recipes setting PARALLEL_MAKE to the empty
string?  it's a *build* option, why would it have any relevance to
individual .bb files?

These recipes don't support random ordering of some operations, thus
they are forcing make to run single-threaded.


   conversely, i don't see a single .bb file that sets
BB_NUMBER_THREADS.  the above just looks ... odd.

I think that setting this variable in a recipe would not have any effect.
