--- Comment #2 from Bryan Drewery <bdrewery at FreeBSD.org> ---
Don't remove -B please. We do not want to pass -j down to the ports build.
Ports does not support -j. It uses an internal mechanism of MAKE_JOBS. Some
ports support it and others do not. Passing down -j doesn't do what you would
expect. 

Separate issue, but it's also not supported to build multiple ports at once
simply via 'make'. Something like Poudriere is needed for that.

# MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER
#               - Override the number of make jobs to be used.  User settable.
# MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER_LIMIT
#               - Set a limit for maximum number of make jobs allowed to be
#                 used.

MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER defaults to the number of CPU threads on the system as long as
you do not set DISABLE_MAKE_JOBS and the port isn't MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE.
