Re: Errors when running "make -sj clean" on windows-x64 in top-level of pvPackageCPP

["Johnson, Andrew N." <anj@aps.anl.gov>]

You can use "make -sj host" to parallel-build just the host architecture (i.e. $EPICS_HOST_ARCH). The host target also exists in Base-3.15 BTW, but not in 3.14.

Integration will be better in EPICS 7.
