[CMake] Use of -J option with cmake generated makefiles

[Mike Jackson]

I use -j 2 all the time but you are right that the console is kinda  
messed up. I doubt that there is a real "Fix" for this as you are  
basically having two threads both write to the same console at the  
same time. You are just going to have to live with it.

  BTW. try make -j 4 or -j 8 some time and watch the output.  ;-)
