multithreaded/multi-core c++ compilation (enhancement) #127

Would it be possible to enhance C++ compile time using multithreaded compiles? Some C++ compilers have command-line switches for compiling multithreaded.

Especially when compiling all modules for desktop target debug/release, and maybe also when compiling applications.

It looks like all modules are compiled in sequential order. Maybe we could get better build-times with the new octacore CPUs when allowing multithreaded compilation.
