The problem is that Open Posix Testsuite should stuck with POSIX make.
At least we promise that we will not break it actively. Now the 2008
POSIX make still does not support the idea of parallel build. I will
have a look what will other than GNU make implementations do with such
rule. If it would be ignored then we are fine adding it, if not we will
have to figure out how to detect GNU make and add the line accordingly.
