Well, all the other switches that go into a ports makefile start with a 
verb (USE_* or WANT_*), whereas with variables that don't start with a 
verb, their value usually matters. Since ALLOW_MAKE_JOBS is just a 
switch, I think the ALLOW should be kept.

But there's another small thing that I changed: BUILD_FAILMSG should of 
course also be printed if Perl is used for building. And while here, 
move the ===> out of the error message and into the printf format 
string. The file has been modified in place, so the URL is still

http://www.maxlor.com/freebsd/files/make_jobs.diff

The previous version, for completeness sake, is here:
