Subject: * True parallel builds.  Nix can now run as many build jobs in  
 parallel as possible (similar to GNU Make's `-j' switch).  This is   useful
 on SMP systems, but it is especially useful for doing builds   on multiple
 machines.  The idea is that a large derivation is   initiated on one master
 machine, which then distributes   sub-derivations to any number of slave
 machines.  This should not   happen synchronously or in lock-step, so the
 master must be capable   of dealing with multiple parallel build jobs.  We
 now have the   infrastructure to support this.

  TODO: substitutes are currently broken.
