The build log doesn't seem to indicate MAKEOPTS is used at all. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge app-office/libreoffice 2. grep for 'make ' in build.log. 3. Actual Results: No trace of MAKEOPTS an any found lines. Expected Results: If I have something like '-j16 -l5', I expect to see that in calls to make. The ebuild also builds dmake, and moves it to a private temp bin directory. I don't know if dmake supports -j and -l.

I'll attach the build log once it's finished compiling. I've only got a partial one I've grepped, so far.
The makeopts are used. Only those that wont get stripped for gbuild are used. Dmake does not support jobs or load balancing so the parts that use dmake cant use this variable. If you want you can work with upstream on making the 3.6 dmake free thus resulting in more support for makeopts variable. It is mostly canfix from gentoo PoV.
I figured as much, based on some other responses around LO and Gentoo. Still wanted to get bug numbers associated with them. I'd love to work with upstream, but there's no way I'd have time. Best I can possibly do is drive discussion about it elsewhere and hopefully come up with a workable fix. Thank you for the reply. :)
