 Hi there,

 now, with that many changes and new features in BIND 10 I'd really like to
 see a proper build system that properly supports multiple build jobs.
 The current build system (BIND 10, 9, ...) doesn't handle parallel builds
 well.

 I think it's nowadays very important as there are more and more multi-
 core/thread systems, not just on the x86 architecture.
 Building BIND with a single job was and is still slow.

 Either you should try to somehow fix the dependencies with autotools (I am
 not sure if that is properly possible at all) or you should consider
 switching to a different build system (cmake, please don't consider any
 other :P).
 I actually would prefer autotools above cmake but it might fit better for
 BIND.
