The default recursive automake setup which GP uses prevents this. This is exactly the purpose of this PR, enabling full parallel build.

Recursive automake processes SUBDIRS in a for loop which can't be done in parallel. This PR does away with SUBDIRSand instead creates proper make targets with complete dependencies. Then the recipes can be build in parallel.
