That's great work!  It's such a shame to have cores unnecessarily idle
during such a slow build.

I was looking at this too, and I have a couple of additional things here:

You added dependencies on the phony target 'buildout_bin', which since
it does not exist will always cause its dependencies to be rebuilt.

Also, by adding this on the left hand side, in some places you make $@
refer to this phony target, not what it should point at.

https://code.launchpad.net/~mbp/launchpad/mbp-trivial tries to improve
this a bit more.

It would be great if we could also avoid the fairly slow js build
happening every time...
