[maemo-developers] policy: "B.3 Parallel option" needs updating

[From: Faheem Pervez]

Hmm, the example given there didn't work for me on the autobuilder.

ifneq (,$(findstring parallel,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
 PARALLEL += -j$(patsubst parallel=%,%,$(filter
parallel=%,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
endif

^ works for me.
