Details
All of the directories listed in a tier are currently built serially. It seems obvious that some of them could be built in parallel, like tier_external_dirs, for example, which is all third-party libraries with no dependencies on anything. We should figure out a way to parallelize the ones that are possible.

I had a thought. We could take all the third-party libs out of toolkit-tiers.mk, and add a single dir like third-party/, whose Makefile could list all of them in PARALLEL_DIRS.
I think this will end up being WONTFIX in favor of Bug 623617 where we'll get a global dependency graph, but I'll leave this open for now.
