If you had looked into bsd.port.mk yourself... right below the docs of
DISABLE_MAKE_JOBS (line 814) is some documentation for MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER
and MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER_LIMIT. -j won't help because there's a lot of
arguments sanitizing going on - we can't be having with random arguments
showing up down in the port's make invocations - quite often, it's
not even "our" make down there.

Christoph
