thanks David

However, in the makefile located at the top of the source tree 
(autogenerated)
I just found that the "link" target is not depending on the "compile" 
target. This explains why it works sequentially ( as make satisfies the 
dependencies in the same order in which they are listed), and does not 
work with the -j option alone.

Is that a feature or a bug ? ;)
