The open-src directory linked from the current X consolidation sources should be
built in parallel automatically - that should be the biggest part of the tree,
and really the Xsun build only needs a few bits of it, but I didn't feel the
need to optimize that for an initial code drop.
The xc directory which contains the newly released code hasn't been made to
build in parallel - it probably wouldn't be that hard, but it's also not that
large a source base compared to everything else.

A few bits of the upstream code from X.Org only build with gcc - we use Sun
Studio cc for everything else - the Xsun sources have never been tested with
gcc and I wouldn't be surprised if we have some Studio specific #pragmas in
the code and certainly have Studio specific CFLAGS in the makefiles.
Again, something the community could fix without much trouble if you actually
are maintaining this code long-term.
