The output management for the makefile generator has several problems (IMO).

- When using parallell make, the output becomes jumbled.
- The -s flag to make is not obeyed.
- The pretty/colorized progress messages can't be switched off.
- The progress messages are (sometimes) too long.

I'd actually like an option to remove all the progress messages from the
makefile, alternatively move them out to a separate (replacable) utility.
