Because the few projects that I've seen using it assume an infinite amount of RAM and CPU threads to be able to compile. On top of that their version of 'make' doesn't recognize or honor MAKEOPTS. Instead you have to create a world readable file off the root of the filesystem to control it's behavior.

Oh that's how it's done. I googled the shit out of that and found nothing but irrelevant info. I eventually gave up on my build of firefox I was attempting a few months ago.
Given your explanation I'm not going to bother now though.
