Summary0014014: Add possibility to build several target simultaneously with 'cmake --build <dir> '
DescriptionI would like to build several targets with cmake --build <dir> so the underlying build tool to do parallel jobs.

Currently it only seems to be possible to build one target at a time, using --target.
Doc is here: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.10/cmake.html#opt:--builddir [^]

Also, it's misleading that the docs for "--target" say "Build <tgt> instead of default targets". As "default targets" is plural one could think it's also possible to specify non-default target*s* by passing in the "--target" option multiple times. Even worse, if you do so, all but the target specified last will get built, all others get silently ignored.
