Re: parallel building documentation

jwe,

The parallel building in the documentation directory makes for some
confusing logs which is why we had the .NOTPARALLEL directive.  It's not
the end of the world, just confusing, but is there any way to get that
behavior back?  Here is an example from my finally successful compile job.

-- Log File --
    mv etc/icons/octave-logo-32.png-t etc/icons/octave-logo-32.png
rm -f etc/icons/octave-logo-16.png-t etc/icons/octave-logo-16.png && \
    rsvg-convert -w 16 etc/icons/octave-logo.svg >

Note that it mixes build jobs from the etc/icons, doc/interpreter, *and*
top-level directory (.gdbinit).
