The main 'install' target depends on 'all':

install: all $(if $(BUILD_DOCS),install-doc) install-datadir 
install-localstatedir \


but I think still allows 'install-doc', 'install-datadir' and
'install-localstatedir'  to parallelize wrt 'all'. I guess the fix is to
make each of those 'install-xxx' targets depend on 'all' instead.
