Ugh...  Please don't make more broken make hacks like this.  I spent a
lot of effort to sort out the dependencies so that we can do a proper
parallel build.  Let's fix the real problem, not regress and make it
harder to find.

The whole point of the new Makefile.tools is to enable cross-builds
like compile-svm.sh does *without* hand-crufted linearizations in
shell script of the dependencies.

What is the substantive difference between what compile-svm.sh does
and what the parallelized Makefile.tools/Makefile build does?  Is it
just about compile-by-procedures and the production of bci files?  I
don't think setting COMPILER:COMPILE-BY-PROCEDURES is necessary for
cross-compiling -- IN-CROSS-COMPILER already does that.
