Thanks!

  I also did some testing on old and new boxes to find a makepkg.conf test that
is reliable. I hit on the following:

CPUCORES=$(grep -c "^processor" /proc/cpuinfo)
if test $CPUCORES -gt 1; then
  MAKEFLAGS="-j${CPUCORES}"
fi

The beginning of line (^) is important to guard against incorrect results like:

16:01 nemesis:~> ( CPUCORES=$(grep -c "processor" /proc/cpuinfo); echo
"CPUCORES: $CPUCORES"; )
CPUCORES: 2

16:01 nemesis:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo

  Notice the extra 'processor' in 'model name'.
