No; there's no need for it to be there. The submakes get information about whether they can run a job or not from the jobserver (a pipe). They don't need to know, nor would it be useful to know, how many total jobs are possible; they just know whether they can run the next one or not. > I would really like to know from my makefile how many (if any) > concurrent jobs user requested.
