I agree that having a command line option for make would be best.
I'm not sure why make tries so hard to not always pass jobserver
anyways.
Because you can easily mess up the jobserver's state when you use the
fd's but don't follow the protocol; it might also hang if you keep a
cookie or maybe even if you keep an fd open, haven't checked.

Hmm maybe the solution would be to implement a more robust protocol and then enable it unconditionally.
