[petsc-dev] make -j not supported? Why???

[Tim Tautges]

Ok, I may be going off experience with 3.1 or getting my env variables messed up.

Better error message for the make -j thing is definitely a plus.

The next problem: I'm trying to see the actual compile line used to build my source file, because an include file isn't 
being found.  I'm sure this is something I'm missing, but it would be easier to diagnose if I could see the compile 
command.  Any clues?

Thanks.
