* The top-level user interface to enable the use of the semaphore is the
`--semaphore` flag. If you pass `-j4 --semaphore` then cabal will
create a semaphore with 4 slots which is passed to ghc using the
`-jsem` option so that all GHC processes coordinate to use 4
capabilities.
- The semaphore logic is provided by a new package `semaphore-compat`
which provides a cross-platform abstraction for semaphores.
* The low level `./Setup.hs build` interface accepts the `--semaphore
<SEMAPHORE>` option, which can be used to directly pass the semaphore
you require to the Setup script.
