[OE-core] [PATCH] boost: fix build when ${PARALLEL_MAKE} contains '-l'

Enrico Scholz enrico.scholz at sigma-chemnitz.de
Tue Oct 7 12:07:11 UTC 2014


The '-l' option which is valid for GNU make (--> limit by load) has a
different meaning in bjam (--> limit maximum execution time) and will
break very likely the build.

Keep only the the '-l' option when passing PARALLEL_MAKE options to
bjam.
