Message:

Archive ninja. It offers very little more than what is iun LFS.
Tag two packages.

       <option>NINJAJOBS=4 make</option>: If you patched system ninja in LFS to
       recognize the NINJAJOBS environment variable, this command will run system
-      ninja with the specified number of jobs (i.e. 4). Among the reasons why
-      you might want to do this are: building on a subset of CPUs, either to
-      measure the build time for that number of processors or to run other
-      CPU-intensive tasks on other cores, or to improve the build speed on a
-      less-well endowed 4-core machine. On a machine with a powerful CPU and
-      plenty of RAM, running N+2 jobs (the ninja default for 4+ cores) for the
-      large working sets of the C++ compiles in this package is typically only
-      marginally faster than running N jobs at a time.  But for a machine with
-      less memory it can be much slower.
