This has been bugging me a while. I've always just avoided it.
Is it safe to
    cd /usr/ports/1/2
    make install &
    cd /usr/ports/3/4
    make install
?

if both go to like register the package at about the same time, will the
package database stay not corrupted?
I'm assuming both have all their dependents installed or they share no
dependents -- to avoid the question of building in the same directory at the
sam etime.
