If you use automake, 90% they are parallel make safe. There are issues in 
cases

a) you refer to a library in the same directory as the Makefile providing the 
full pathname;
b) you don't put the SUBDIRS variable in the correct order for things to being 
built;
c) you provide custom targets for instance to run scripts that create source 
files.
