boost: Limit PARALLEL_MAKE by -j 64
* greater paralelism isn't supported by bjam and causes segfault or ignoring -j * PARALLEL_MAKE was enabled for boost in http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=9b9cfc1dfe5e3b8f89b7a8508537166d0f23935e Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <Martin.Jansa@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Saul Wold <sgw@linux.intel.com>
