Rebuild buildtool with "-fopenmp" and then you should be able to use the "-j" (20 parallel threads) option or e.g. "-j 4" (4 threads).
Needless to say this speeds up a clean build tremendously on i7 2600K: 7 minutes.
It is somewhat buggy, but who cares You have to run btool once more without "-j" to get a build done. Someone should be able to fix that...
Nice work!
