Would it be more preferable to use the number of CPUs available on the
system, instead of hard-coding a value?  Such as:

NCPU?= $$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)

This would allow those with fewer than 8 CPUs to not need to specify
CPU=n when invoking make(1).

On an additional point, is there any reason in particular you did not
make parallel builds the default?
