 ### Option `build-cores'
 #
 # This option defines the number of CPU cores to utilize in parallel
-# within a build job, i.e. by passing an appropriate `-jN' flag to
-# GNU make. The default is 1, meaning that parallel building within
-# jobs is disabled. Passing the special values `0', `auto', or
-# `guess' causes Nix to try and auto-detect the number of available
-# cores on the local host. This setting can be overridden using the
-# `--cores' command line switch.
