While I do appreciate you stepping in to defend autotools (if for no other reason then because someone has to so that the discussion is balanced :-) ), I think that you are wrong to say that autotools is unusual in getting the idea of parallel builds right, since in my experience the opposite is the case: most systems support parallel builds --- such as SCons, CMake, I think waf, etc. --- with Cabal being an outlier here.
