Also try looking into scons (http://www.scons.org/). It's a Python
based build system, where the build scripts are actually Python scripts,
which can come in pretty handy sometimes. It also has the -j option,
and quite a number of other nice features, including (IIRC) features
that support building for different platforms the way you're talking
about. The only real downside is that your bulid platform needs to run
Python, but unless you are building on a micro embedded system, that
means everything that is out there currently.
Watch out for the performance of SCons. We did some tests a while ago and then again recently:
It takes a very long time to analyze and update dependencies, which is unfortunate because it's much more flexible and easy to use (IMO) than make, jam, etc... our tests were all win32 though, perhaps performance is better on OSX?
