can we get more parallelism in make check?

[Noel Grandin]

Hi

Any build experts feel like speeding up "make check".
I will definitely owe you a beverage of your choice :-)

The "subsequentcheck" part of "make check" spends most of it's life 
executing one test at a time,
which means I drink lots of coffee while I'm waiting, which only makes 
the waiting worse :-)

We did try speeding this up last year sometime, but the mix of dmake and 
gmake made it quite difficult.
I'm hoping that with the New Improved makefiles this is less of an issue.

Thanks, Noel Grandin.
